After feeing poorly and a CT scan at midnight, Jordan was taken to intensive care on Wednesday night with a suspected pulmonary embolism – this was probably the worst few hours of my life.  Luckily (!) he just has a collapsed lung and chest infection which is now responding well to treatment and we are hoping he will go back to the ward tomorrow.

The actual operation has gone well and the plaster cast came off his stump today, is  healing so well and has been nicknamed by Jordan as “Forest” – (as in Forest Gump/Stump!). Jordan is moving it about with confidence.  he has had the phantom feelings of his whole leg as we were told to expect and thinks it is quite “cool” to “kick” with the leg that isnt there anymore!

Jordan is coping amazingly well.

Thanks to everyone who has sent cards – it means so much to Jordan and to us, we have had such tremendous support.

Thank you
