“Hello everyone, it’s Lisa here.” Lisa Murillo, wife of Mike Murillo posted on Mike Murillo Racing Facebook page. “Just wanted to give everyone an update on Mike and his surgery. Everything went great with no complications or issues. He will be in the hospital for at least a couple more days despite what he wants. Thank you to everyone for all your thoughts, prayers and well wishes. Appreciate every single one of y’all.
He’s gotta long road to recovery ahead of him but man he is one tough cookie and I admire his strength. He’s so ready to do what he has to do to recover quick and will be back in action in no time.”

“Update Day 2. 2 therapy sessions. First one @10am. Made it about 6-8 steps Equa sue the pain .. second one @ 2pm made it further but for sure can’t go home today and probably not tomorrow either. Did I mention the pain?
Knee caps feel like they’re being pryed off by a top of the line pry bar from Harbor Freight”
