Update on Nancy Brubaker

An update my dad posted regarding my mom for those who are asking:

A Nancy Smith Brubaker update:

After a MRI to assess Nancy’s neck injuries, she was transported to the University of Cincinnati medical center for surgical intervention.

A plate will be used to stabilize the fractured C2 vertebrae to either or both the C1 and C3vertebrae as the C2 anterior ligament was torn and has limited accessibility for repair.

I have spoken with two of the attending residents who will be in attendance to observe the procedure. ( No touching!) I have not seen the orthopedic surgeon as of yet but have assessed his credentials and reviews. (Stephen Agabegi) The surgery has been assigned as an add-on which means, whenever a time slot opens. The procedure will take 2-3 hours. Unsure of the recovery time or time before travel to home. More prayers requested for good outcome and pain management.
