Dan

At the hospital in Flag this morning to see Dan.  He went to surgery around 8:30 am to put in a tracheotmy and loosening his jaw so they can put a feeding tube into his stomach.  I was told us he wouldn't be out for a couple of hours.  He does have pneumonia which due to the trauma to his lung probably isn't too surprising.  The trach should help him breathe on his own and help them suction out phlem as he coughs it up.  They need to put food in his stomach to keep his digestive system going.  Will send more updates after surgery.
