Latest Update from Kristie

PT is here now and is very impressed by the progress he's making in his knee. He's able to bend and straighten that knee without seriously intense or disabling pain. He's about to stand with the help of his therapist and the assistance of a modified walker (he can't bear ANY weight on his arms at all at this point). He's going to sit in the special chair for a few hours. Later today an occupational therapist will come by and discuss everyday activities and what he'll be able to expect to do and what point in the future. He'll be exhausted by the end of today and hopefully he'll be able to sleep some. (I'm about to give him another bird bath -while he's propped up- so maybe the warm soap and water will help him relax, too.)
