Still an Impatient Patient, But Feeling a Lot Better
Well, Steven's not going home tonight but it's looking good for tomorrow. He's way more alert and perkier today than yesterday. He's also moving around with more ease. That could be the Percoset but yesterday he was afraid to move at all and tonight he actually got up a few times.
He's also had some work with the physical therapist on how to use crutches so he thinks he'll be OK there. And, he's off the IV and actually ate most of his dinner so his appetite is back.
Gare dropped by with some Valentine Day's candy that they made at the store today. He works at Kitchen Classics and they do cooking classes there. I had a nice, unhealthy dinner of fresh Divinity, Chocolate Covered Cherrys and Chocolate Covered Popcorn. It was all very tasty.
I had to laugh at Steven, several times. He's irritated at the surgeon but irrationally so. He was railing at everything and I kept telling him, "The doctor told you it was going to be that way yseterday." He was so doped up, it clearly didn't sink in so everything was a big suprise to him today.
