"He is doing well with recovery. All of his major surgeries went well with only one remaining that the doctors are talking about right now. He has good days where he is talkative and a little more conscious and other days where he is out of it and is asleep. Not many updates to give, but no updates at this point isn't necessarily a bad thing. Again, thank you all for your prayers and support."

“Ariel was extubated today and is talking a little on his own. He still has a lot of healing to do and more surgeries to come, but we are so thankful for how far he’s come already. Please keep the prayers coming!” 

Ariel came through his many surgeries as well as could be expected. It will be a few weeks before he goes into surgery again, so the focus right now is for him to rest. I don’t think any update can accurately reflect how miraculous it is that he has made it this far. Please pray for continued healing for Ariel and for strength and encouragement for his wife and family. There is still a long road ahead.

Update 4/4/24: “Thank you everyone for your donations and for your prayers. Ariel is defying all odds stacked against him and is coherent at times. He is still heavily sedated and has undergone multiple major surgeries with multiple more to come. Ariel’s next surgery requires surgeons to reconnect his skull to his neck. Ariel is going to have a long road to recovery, but he is showing his strength and determination. Please continue to pray for him, his family, his friends, and his coworkers. From all of us involved, thank you for everything.”
