Out and next Steps

Jacob was discharged from the hospital yesterday evening.  We made it back to the McElderry House where we are staying.  He was really motivated to get out of the hospital and did not want Inpatient PT.  His first night out went pretty well.  We will be working on taking steps today, using the walker, around the house.  He has a follow-up appointment tomorrow morning at 10 am with Dr. Ahn and we may be able to begin the trip home tomorrow.  Jacob will likely need extensive PT on an outpatient basis, but we should be able to arrange this at home.

Please continue to pray that Jacob's incision site will heal and that his legs will continue to get stronger each day.  Please pray that he will consume enough liquids, too, to keep the urology side of things in good order.

The Lord is gracious and merciful.

We will try to provide an update tomorrow morning, right after our appointment.
