Connor Amos SICU/Rehab fund

Look at this stud! Connor had his feeding tube removed today and is now able to drink/eat anything liquid! This photo is nearly unbelievable. Just over a week ago we weren't sure whether or not Connor would even survive after sustaining such traumatic injuries... and now we are speaking with his doctors and therapists about his discharge from the hospital all together!
He has a VERY long road ahead of him. His rehabilitation sounds like it will be everything but easy. Connor is very committed to staying strong. Please continue to send prayers and positive thoughts his way. He's going to need all of the mental, emotional and physical support that he can get. Thank you all so much for your loving support and all of your prayers/positive thoughts. This season of our lives is far from over but without all of the support and love that our family has received we would not have made it this far. I'll be sure to update again soon!

Yesterday was a big day for Connor and for us! He did great during his first visit from therapy and was even able to sit up in a chair like position on the side of his bed!
Yesterday evening Connor was finally taken back for surgery. He now has a plate in his right wrist to keep it stable. In 2-3 months he need surgery again. At that time they will replace the current plate with a smaller one so that he is able to bend his wrist again. This is his dominant hand. We are hopeful that with surgery and much therapy that he will regain full mobility.
Thankfully, he was also able to be extubated after surgery. This was a concern since his right lung has continued to fill up with junk. Pneumonia definitely hasn't helped his lungs to recover. Connor's jaw was rewired shut following surgery. His deep breathing and efforts to cough have continued to improve and his arterial and central line were both pulled as of this morning!
His medical team is pleased that he is showing so many quick and positive signs of recovery.
Connor is working VERY hard to do everything that he is asked to do. I know that all of the continued prayers and positive thoughts are assisting him with that. Thank you all so much for your loving support.
I am amazed by the selflessness and the beauty of other that I have witnessed within this past week. Complete strangers have reached out to pray with and for us all. That kind of love and support is absolutely priceless and our family couldn't possible thank you all enough.
As always, continued prayers and positive thoughts are need. Rehabilitation is a wonderful word and we are blessed that it is in his future after such terrible trauma.
I will continue to update as things change. Thank you again for all of your continued love and support!

As of today, Connor is officially off of the ventilator and no longer sedated! Please continue to send prayers and positive thoughts his way! This is a huge step in his recovery and we are feeling VERY positive and hopeful today. Every second, minute, hour or day that passes without his health declining is an absolute blessing.
Connor is currently scheduled for wrist surgery and to have his jaw wired shut again tomorrow morning.
Thank you all so much for your continued thoughts, prayers and support. I'll update you all again soon.
