Brandon has really started doing better today. He had a good dinner last night and ate a pretty good breakfast. It makes a big difference when he can get food into his body. His dressing change was seemed easier today today than yesterday. Tomorrow we have a dear neighbor (who is an RN) coming up to learn how to take care of him when we get him home. It's still a big question as to when he is coming home. Earliest we have heard was Monday, but some are talking about mid to end of next week. I guess it just depends on how things heal. It's looking pretty good. Tomorrow he might get a few of his staples out. He is excited because they may start letting him move around in the next day or two. He is only allowed to lay still on his back right now so that the skin graft can take and won't move around.
Brandon had a few visitors today and they played some football on the PS2. It was fun watching how the game made his heart rate go crazy. He had a great time, but Brandon caught a few Z's now and then and was sawing logs soon after the fun. He gets tired pretty easily.
All in all, things are going well. He has had exceptional care. The nurses and doctors are wonderful.
I have been reading him your postings and emails. We have really appreciated all your support! We have an amazing community.
