Thank you all for your prayers in Brandon's behalf. He is healing well and has been getting stronger each day. We had to cancel his appt on Monday due to the flu, but were able to get up to the U of U yesterday. Instead of hearing don't do this or that, we heard a lot more of - stretch this, do that. It was great to hear. Essentially, he is only restricted to the following things now: he can't be in water other than a bath/shower and he can sustain any bumping to the graft. He can bowl, practice kicking the football, and even lift weights once he gets clearance from the PT who is working with him on the feeling in his arm. He still gets tried really fast, but I'm sure that will come back pretty quickly.
As you can tell from the picture, he went on the trek this morning. He is not going to actually trek, but will be a support person in the base camp. He will help set up tents, cook food, etc. The leaders have been amazing to work with and have done so much to help him be a part of this wonderful experience.
Thanks to everyone for their part either in prayers or trek support to make this happen.
