Great Day

So my title says it all...C had an awesome day today! It started with his bath. He got a med in his room and they didnt have to give him his strong drugs in the tub room. He came back a happy boy....none of this angry child with his bouts of rage, crossing his arms and lashing out! It totally made my day! Next a PT tech came in and wanted to work with C on therapy. She asked him if he wanted to work in his room or go downstairs to the rehab area. C right away said downstairs, with a smile on his face nonetheless!!! :) The trip yesterday must have made a lasting impression even if he was ticked beyond reason! C walked from his room, down the hall from the burn center, grabbed an elevator down and walked all around the rehab area. He also did steps about 5-6 times up and down. Then to top it off he walked all the way back to his room with out crying! Talk about making my day!!! I was praising Jesus the whole way down and back! An OT tech came in this afternoon and he worked with her too without fussing and throwing fits. I think she was pleasantly surprised! She winked at me when she left....had to be a great sign!

I was given our schedule for next week concerning times for day rehab. Monday morning bright and early 9am. I will take any trip back and forth than staying here another week! I will need to stay on top of things. I'm not one for strict structure, some is ok but I'd rather fly by the seat of my pants! It'll take some getting used to for me, but I'll adapt I always do.

Marv called me tonite and was asking for balloons and I asked him if he's having a party. He said the boys and our sitter are making a welcome home sign for C when he gets home on sat. Our nurse today said that on the nurses board its written that we are being released tomorrow. I told her to double check because I didnt want to get my hopes up. I havent heard either way yet. Nobody else seems to know. So we will see.....

I have more to write, but am lacking time...C needs 2 brush his teeth, and settle down. Until next time.....
