Logan is recovering!

 

It has been such an interesting week with Logan's recovery. The surgery went fine and it seemed to take forever for him to wake up. It was over 2 hours and I was getting impatient. Luckily he was in good hands. When we got to the hospital Stacy was there in the area where he was going. She was the gal I was to go to Korea with when she got her son last year. In the Recovery room, he had a young gal that used to be his babysitter when SHE was 13.

Each hour brings something different. The first two days were aweful. Mostly at night. He was in so much pain. All I could do was hold him from the side of the couch and pray. It was gutwrenching to see him in so much pain. He was questioning "WHY?!?!" he had the surgery and was just shaking in pain. The Vicadin eventually made him vomit after a few days, but the Darvacet seems to be working.

Today is a good day. He has gotten his hair washed and has a friend over to play Ps3. Thank goodness for that, I-pod touch and his cell phone. They are getting him through this. He can now crawl and can also move from the couch to the floor and back. Still no weight on the feet at all and that is hard, no showers, no walking, etc. He has gone outside once in the wheelchair, but that is really something only Barry can help with at this point. I am just not strong enough.

Each day is closer to him walking again, so that is something to look forward to. He has enjoyed the visits, gifts, balloons and cards from everyone.
