2nd Update/11:16 am

At 11:16 nurse Jennifer called to give us an update. Everything is going good and the doctor is working on the neck and jawbone. One of the things my dad was worried about was that part of the jawbone(mandible)would have to be removed, but the nurse said that at this time they don't believe that is necessary.However, the nurse explained that they are cutting the jawbone(mandible) to gain access to underlying tissues and then they will let the bone heal back together.
