Hi All.
I have just heard from Tina and the Miely family.
The update not is not what anyone had hoped for.
Tony was in for surgery this morning starting at 7:00 a.m. and they have just spoken to the doctor, surgery was approximately 2 hours longer than expected.
He has an infection in his arm that they are monitoring closely and they are hoping it doesn't spread through his body to become more threatening. Infections can spread quickly through his bloodstream.
When they found the infection during the amputation surgery today, they took samples that have been sent to a lab for testing.
The best case scenario is they can treat it, and continue with amputation at the wrist, it is possible that they will have to amputate further, and the worst case scenario is that it can spread and become much more threatening.
More updates will follow as I hear more, right now the prognosis is not as good as anyone would like.
Please continue to keep him in your thoughts and prayers.
This is such a heart felt tragedy, we are all hoping for some good news soon.
Bree.
