jr had to go through a couple of unexpected surgeries yesterday.He still has the bone flap removed. So his body was creating more brain fluid then usual.And for that reason a shunt had to be inserted. (small tube from the brain to his tummy) To drain and control some of the fluids.He also had a little bit of a problem a few days ago.When they tried to remove his trach .A little piece of skin had started to grow around the trach area on the inside.which delayed the removal surgeries both went fine.and were back on track
