Jonothan's Mother is kindly keeping me up to date with Jon's progress and also sent some more pictures shown below. I have also included her update on how he's doing and he seems to be fighting all the way. Good on yer son! [as we say over here!]
Last night he actually walked to the bathroom (with me in tow) with his
therapy belt around his waist. This is a big milestone.
He is a strong kid.
Will keep you updated. Thanks. T.
Below are pictures of Jonothan. His legs are looking pretty darn good.
He
is walking with a walker and walks up to about 60 feet.
He is doing his
exercises....if we could just bend that left knee a little bit more....

This is a picture of Jonothan's left leg with the fasciotomy covered with
this Vaseline-type medicated gauze-type wrap. We no longer have to use
this. Notice Jonothan's thumbs up signal. He is a strong kid. He has gone
through a lot. His spirits are usually high, though.

This is Jonothan's left leg without the wrap over the fasciotomy. He is
going to have a scar here and on the other side of his leg. I have talked
to him about plastic surgery, however, the word surgery is not in his
vocabulary at this time. We'll discuss at a later date.

Again, this is his left leg showing the fasciotomy.
A picture of Jonothan's left femur.

Another picture of his left tibia, however, this one is from the inside calf
area.

Another picture of Jonothan's left femur.
These pictures are usually taken during the fasciotomy and pin site
cleanings. Jonothan has had two infections in his site areas, however, at
this point, they are doing really well.
The doctor is talking about
removing the external fixators and replacing them with a moveable cast.
We'll see what happens on July 11 when we go to the hospital for another
visit.
All-in-all, Jonothan is doing really well. I am very proud of him.
