Today marks the one week mark since Jake's surgery. We have a follow up appointment today with Paley's group (don't think we will see Paley b/c he is in surgery). Jake was discharged on Sunday from the hospital and is resting comfortably at the hotel. We have been going to PT everyday to try to help Jake learn to walk with his hip locked in the fixator and to get some range of motion back in his knee which is really tight. He is not a fan! He asks us if we can leave and never come back.. "deal" he says... :-( It will take a while for him to be independent. He still has a lot of pain and finds it uncomfortable to stand and move around.
Pray for his comfort and desire to learn to be more independent. He is very fearful of the pain and that holds him back from wanting to try to walk or stretch.
Brother time!
"Cheers!"
Yummy!
Charles turned 35 on Sunday! We were able to get out to a restaurant while mom watched the crazy kids! "Thanks Mom!!" xoxo
Also, Mom helped us sew a pair of shorts to fit over Jake's fixator. Kristen Hafner lent us the sewing machine (along with a lot of other toys and baby/kid essentials to borrow while we are here.. A BIG THANK YOU HAFNER FAMILY!!)
We are getting ready to fly back home soon!! We leave WPB on Friday morning!
