Well we have been home for 5 days now. He has adjusted well and we have gotten the house pretty much arranged for the chair and things. It is harder to post daily now that I am working and keeping regular daily things going again. Things have gotten so far behind at the Perry household. I will try to update at least two or three times a week though. Hopefully one day soon Brock can post for you all.
He is not all together in love with outpatient therapy, he misses his inpatient therapists. The progress seems slower because he is only doing each discipline once three times a week instead of twice daily six days a week.
He has not felt well today. That makes it even more frustrating to him.
His facial expressions are returning, his smile is even, but there is a facial and neck neuropathy pain that is irritating to him. His left eye still doesn't ever completely close yet. His joints (hips and knees mostly) ache.
He can stand for a few minutes, he can walk about 200 feet with the walker. He can not write yet and typing and texting still is very frustrating.
It is difficult to get him in and out of our house but once he is off the deck getting him in the car has become much easier. Car rides seem to make him car sick each time.
The PT goal is for him to be walking with a cane in four weeks.
Keep him in his prayers, he is frustrated and wishes he could be with friends.
Love
