I just got home from packing up most of Mike’s belongings because at 10:00 AM tomorrow morning the discharge process will begin! I don’t know that either one of us will sleep a wink tonight because we’re so ecstatic. Now that he’s off the walker, there really isn’t much we need to do to prep […]

Y’all notice anything missing??? That’s right…NO WALKER! We just took a couple of laps around the building! I couldn’t be more excited to see him walking on his own. In other news…guess who’s busting out and coming HOME Saturday?!?!? The big guy is officially coming home the day after tomorrow. I know 3 little fluffer […]

We brought little Maya, who barked at anyone […]

Today was Mike’s first full day of rehab, and he had both occupational therapy and physical therapy. He was done by noon! One of their goals this week is to start walking without the walker. The facility doctor stopped by and said he was doing so well that he didn’t think Mike would be there […]

…well, from LMC, anyway.  Today is moving day! Still waiting for official discharge, but we’re busting out today by noon and will be checking in to Mike’s 5 star resort rehab center in Cayce. Not sure what that process will look like or how long it will take, so please give me until tomorrow to […]
