What a weekend! Saturday was the big coming home – so after the discharge process we took it easy the rest of the day. Mike spent all day with the dogs, we sat out on the porch for a good chunk of the afternoon, and we called it an early night.
We, of course, had to have welcome home beers!
As many of you know, Sundays are usually brunch days for us! We didn’t feel like going out, so I made brunch at home. After that we just took it easy the rest of the day. I think the past 2 and a half weeks have caught up with us. We’re both exhausted and Mike has never been more glad to be back in our own bed.
He continues to improve every day – Saturday we had boiled peanuts with our beers (as one does), and it was a great exercise for him to practice those fine motor skills with his left hand. When one is properly motivated, he can accomplish great feats.
He is up and down the stairs with some minor modifications coming down since the banister is on the left, but he doesn’t need a walker or a cane at all. And yesterday I caught him in the garage sitting on his bike practicing changing gears. Don’t worry guys – he’ll be back on the road with you in no time! As I said, when one is properly motivated… 😍
