Physical Therapy and Occupational Therapy gave Dave the weekend off because he has been doing so well. However, Dave didn't want to take off. He was up in his wheelchair this morning for about 2 1/2 hrs., and we took a stroll around the floor. This afternoon he was up for about 1 1/2 hrs., and took his stroll. We even had our lunch in the dining room. I'm sure that felt better than eating in bed. The donor site, which is where the skin was taken from to put on his arm, really started hurting him this afternoon. It is probably from all the exercise and the skin stretching. He has felt sort of strange this evening, so we will keep close watch tonight.
Yesterday was such an exciting day for our family, and when all parties involved are ready I just might tell everyone. Now that I have peaked your curiosity, I am going to sleep!
