She was taken straight for an MRI and surgical treatment on Wednesday early morning around 3 am. The health practitioner was able to alleviate the compression on the spinal cord and medical procedures went as effectively as anticipated. When you have trauma to your spinal twine, it is really a waiting game. With the inflammation and trauma, you have to wait. She continue to has emotion in her thighs, but no movement as of however.

She has a compact remaining pneumothorax, which is the air among the lung and chest wall, not within the lung. They are just monitoring that as it is not massive plenty of for intervention at this level, which is a blessing. Currently, she was diagnosed with a perforated bowel with free fluid in her abdomen, she experienced some internal bleeding in her tummy place. They knew about it and they were being looking at it and currently they were in a position to pinpoint it and come across out where by it was. That surgery went great, that got in there and got the bleeding under regulate and obtained her on the mend. She went to the OR for that right now. They did a bowel resection, which suggests they took a tiny of it out, almost nothing that has long-phrase results. While she was down there, the orthopedics resolved to do a further washout of her leg and some manipulation to the bones for superior alignment. She nevertheless has the external fixator in position and they placed an NG tube down her nose to decompress her stomach. They will consider it out tomorrow and this will enable her to take in.”
