Daniel has been moved up to the general ward on floor 12 now. We have our own private room with a bathroom, and now at 7.30pm it is also very quiet as well.
Daniel has slept for most of the day but he was awake for about an hour in the middle of the afternoon. He managed to eat a cracker and some apple juice - hardly a feast but very good progress at this stage.
The nurse said that Daniel is doing better than the average rhizotomy patient, and she concluded that "he is doing awesome". I love the way these guys put their point across.
While I was making Daniel comfortable in bed this afternoon (he has to be on his back continuously) I felt his left foot and it felt so much more loose and easy to move up and down at the ankle than before the surgery. That's what we're here for - so far so good!

Excellent news. He's putting Porky to shame!
ReplyDeleteGlad to hear things are going to plan and that you are being well looked after. Enjoy the peace and quiet while it lasts Adrian. I'm sure Daniel will be chatting away and keeping you busy in no time at all! Love to you both. Anne Mc & family. xx
