The threat of infection kept him in treatment and unfortunately that meant Jack, valedictorian of his class, would miss giving a speech at his graduation.
Jack’s colon had ruptured.
“It almost felt like knives in my stomach. It was a lot worse than I have ever felt before,” Jack said. Three emergency surgeries and two months later, Jack is still recovering at Los Robles hospital in Thousand Oaks. “My spirits were pretty low because I couldn't make it to graduation and I thought that was a really important part of life,” Jack said. “It was really disappointing because we didn't imagine that he would be in the hospital for this long,” his mother said. “It was something I wasn't keeping my hopes up for but it’s something that was a huge blessing,” Jack said.
Thanks to the cooperation of hospital staff, the surgeons, nurses and management, Jack donned his cap and gown and was met with several rounds of applause, balloons and well wishes.Jack is now back at the hospital on the road to recovery.
