Dear Family and Friends,

Joe just called me to say he is back home and doing great! From a picture sent my Ginny via cell phone, the indentation caused by the injury and the subsequent debridement surgery is now smoothed over. He is taking it easy and staying ahead of the pain with meds. He will be going back to UAB on Friday to have the sutures and staples removed.

Thanks to all of you for all your prayers. Thanks to Dr. Fisher for doing such a great job. And thank you God for getting Joe through one more surgery.

Happy Feast of the Guardian Angels.

Love to all,

Lisa

Surgery Thursday, September 30 Joe via Lisa

We thought this surgery wouldn't occur for awhile. Mom and Dad Leahy just returned to Ohio recently from the first surgery and are sorry to not be there. Please keep Joe and his medical team in your prayers. Love to all, Lisa


Everyone,

I'm going to have another surgery at University of Alabama-Birmingham tomorrow at 10 am or so. They are implanting a titanium plate in my forehead to cover the "dent" in my skull. I'm sure everything will be fine, but please keep me in your prayers. Gin and boys are taking great care care of me.

Love to all,

Joe
