The surgery went fine and Brandt did great. They were able to drain the fluid and clean out some of the tissue. The put in a drain so that they will be able to flush the area today and tomorrow, if fluid continues to build. The drain will remain in place until the area is clear. He will remain in IV antibiotics for the next couple of days, then switch to oral before he can go home.
Right now our best guess is that we might be able to go home Sunday, but probably not until Monday.
He continues to hang in there and take everything like a champ. He is pretty well medicated for the pain, but is not complaining. We have have to change his neck dressing later this afternoon, so i may have another update then.
