Jana White's update on Facebook........5 hours of surgery, 7-8 plates to hold the shattered bones together, two incisions---one inside his mouth,one above his eye in the eye lid---two punctures for screws and Cooper's face has been put back together. It was very shattered and about 1 inch displaced. He did not need to get his mouth wired shut but will be on a liquid diet for a couple of weeks. Good news, facial nerves etc. in tact. Bad news--he'll be pretty swollen and uncomfortable for several days. But it's fixed. 4-6 months from now he will have surgery to remove the plates . Just waiting to be able to go into recovery to see him. Thank you, thank you, thank you for all of the prayers and support. He will need them now as he continues to heal both emotionally and physically. Us too.
Please continue to keep them in your prayers!!
We Love you Cooper and White family!!
