Hopeful vibes continue for the Lassners...
I just talked to Jane: Sherlock is finally going in for the shoulder surgery and, while they have him under, contrast x-rays. The doc is hoping to find the bones intact, which would mean no digging around inside, looking for fragments to remove.
The detailed pix of the elbows showed a slightly less-disastrous condition than expected which, however, cannot be corrected right now. The surgeon will open up both legs to see what's the story with those elbows, and then close 'em up. It may be - this would be the miracle - that, as this baby boy grows, the situation wouldn't be as bad as it looks right now. The best-case prognosis is that Sherlock will come up to as much as 90 percent of normal growth and movement, running, hiking, playing. Worst case is something I will not consider right now. HHW vibes for best-case, please!
More info as I get it.
