Some R&R

The Hospital released Connor yesterday so that he could take a few days for rest and relaxation. We were all getting a little couped up in the Hospital and it was so nice to come home to something familiar.

Our stay at home will be short one, as Connor and I will be going back to Emanuel for some inpatient physical therapy. He has some weakness on his left side, his neck is very stiff and he needs to gain strength in his legs, but for just having Surgery on Monday we think he is doing just great. He's a real trouper pushing through the pain. Connor and I will stay overnight for up to two weeks.

The plan is to have him as strong as he can be (both physically and mentally) before he starts treatment.

I want to thank all of you who have offered help through this, we are so thankful for the wonderful family and friends, and friends of family and friends that have reached out to us. We are so thankful and humbled. As we adjust to our new "normal" over the next year we will certainly be taking you up on your generous offers.
