Sorry for not posting yesterday. I was attending a beautiful funeral for my Grandpa-in Law in Oakley, Idaho. It was a perfect tribute to a great man. We love and miss you Grandpa!
Scott is working hard in rehab. Yesterday, when Janiece left for a moment to shower, Scott tried to get up by himself to use the restroom. He fell and sweet Mick was the person there who had to go get help. It scared him. With a lot of help Scott was able to get back into bed. He was stiff and sore but the Physical Therapy continued.
The fall also caused Scott to have more drainage from his amputated leg. The drainage also changed into a "new blood" color. It is worrisome.
This morning I got the bad news that Scott had fallen once again. This time they had to get the lift to get Scott off the floor. So, for today, he isn't allowed to use the walker and is only able to transfer to and from the wheelchair.
We are disappointed and worried about Scott falling so much. It is an eye opener to say the least. We're grateful that this has happened at the hospital though, where there are a lot of people and the right equipment to get Scott back up. What would happen at home? I really hope Scott can realize this as well, and will give rehab (a lot) more days to help him.
