On Friday, August 9, 2024 Billy was at the hospital for a routine CT scan. The neurosurgeon explained to me that even though he found some fluid, he felt comfortable replacing Billy's skull plate. This news puts us closer to the trifecta of requirements to move Billy out of Billy's Place and closer to Billy's home.

The 3 requirements were to have the skull plate replaced, to be have the treach removed, and get approved for Disability in Florida.

They had the traech tube capped on and off for a few weeks. Yay! More progress. Respiratory says they will have him off the traech by end of the week. Ooops! He's having surgery next week, we'll have to wait

Then the company that makes the skull plate could not have it ready in time. Surgery is now scheduled for Sept. 4. Our application for Disability is still under review.
