Well, we're down to one tube (for IV fluids). Paul got rid of the oxygen last night, and they took the heart rate and oxygen monitor off this morning. He's had physical therapy twice today. The therapist said he's improving every time. We can go walk whenever Paul wants to without a nurse coming along. He walked down the hall and sat in the waiting area for a while this morning. He is able to get in and out of bed with very little help on my part.
Dr. Jones stopped by this afternoon and removed the bandage from his leg. He was very impressed with how good the incision area looks. And as an added bonus, Paul's leg is feeling a little better, now that his skin isn't being pulled. The doctor says there's a good chance for Paul to be released tomorrow! We are so anxious to get back to real life. Everyone here has been wonderful, but it's not home. Thank you, everyone who has been helping our family through this adventure. We love you all and are so grateful we have so many family and friends to depend upon.
