Just an update!So Jason had a follow up appointment with his Rehabilitation Dr. Dr. Fu is great. He is the one that got Jason on to the Rehab floor back in September of last year. Well 6 months ago at the follow up appointment after discharging from the hospital post first transplant, Jason was only doing 25% of his daily care and activites. That meant that 75% was either assited or with me. He was in the wheelchair and had to use a slide board to transfer out of chairs and bed etc. Now 6 months later Jason has been cleared to use a cane to walk!!! He still has a long way to go. His balance is off, he has some pretty wicked gait abnormalities, his neuropathy has curled his toes on his right foot so he occassionally steps on them (ouch!), still has some slight drop foot issues but he has done so well!!! To go from not walking at all back in October to walking with a cane is fantastic. Im am so proud of him! We go back in the beginning of June for 6 months post second Transplant and 10 months post first and it still looks good. Jason said that he has had less pelvis and sacrum pain so maybe those are healing too!
Ronan is doing better, Jason is doing better, and I managed to only feel bad for a day or two! All in all not too bad. Im thinking that this weekend Jason and I might have a date night and take his new walking cane out for a spin! Prayers Welcomed! Kimmy
