I'm sorry it's been a week since I posted anything of significance, but by the time I get home at night I just want to sleep! Next week I am going to make an effort to write while I am at rehab with Al and hopefully this blog will be more timely.
As you know, Al is back at Holmgreen for rehab and this time he is up for the challenge. As we now know, his last attempt at rehab was too soon. Apparently, the Cushing Syndrome was not stable enough for him to focus on regaining some of his strength. He was still overwhelmed with fatigue, weakness and loss of appetite. This time around it's another story! The Cushing is stable, so he is ready to put the effort forward to get stronger. He is focused and ready for physical therapy. He has already had two sessions and it is completely different between this visit and the last one. Earlier today he complained that he was not getting PT because it was Saturday. He thought that was ridiculous and griped about it for an hour. As we both were dozing off...PT knocked on the door and told him it was time for his therapy. If he could have jumped out of bed, he would have to beat them to the gym. As for me, I stayed in the room and continued that nap!
In summary, he is doing great. He is focused, stronger and hungrier. Continue praying for his therapy sessions as we both want him to come home soon.
I'm so excited about how much stronger he is getting. Praying that God is going to completely heal his body. I believe He will! Love you!
