Update on Husband

Hi Everyone, just wanted to let you all know the latest. I took Pat to the doctors yesterday and he had the 22 staples removed from his back. He is healing just fine. Believe it or not he is walking with a cane around the house during the day and uses the walker at night.

He also got to take his first shower by himself today. So me bathing him and washing his hair is now off of my to do list, Yea!!!!.

He still has continual pain in his left leg and two left fingers. They gave him new medicine but not really working that well. He only manages to get about 5 hrs sleep a night that is it. He wish he could get more.

Hope everyone is doing fine and will talk to you soon.
