So Nick just told me that I can't forget to update his blog.
Today has been a crazy day. All we have done today is go go go.
We started with occupational therapy at 9 then had p.t. then recreational therapy then occupational again. This was all before 12. Then he had lunch then we had p.t. again then our educational class then at 4 we have another p.t. At 5 he will have dinner. It has been a very exhausting day, and Nick is really feeling it. He is very tired and his shoulder blades really hurt tonight.
Nick hasn't had any pain meds for 4 days now, besides tylenol. That is so great. He doesn't feel like he always needs to sleep now.
The nurses are really worried about his nutrition. He really doesn't like the hospital food and so he doesn't always eat very much. We try to bring things in for him to eat, sometimes he will eat them and sometimes he won't. Unless it is watermelon, then he will tons of it. One of the guys in the cafeteria found out that Nick likes Dr. Pepper so he will sent one up to Nick every once in a while. I told him I don't mind if he does that as long as he brings me the mint truffle that they usually send with his lunch and dinner. They are really good.
The people have been so good to us here at the hospital. It has really helped alot.
Thanks Nick for the updates.... haha I read them everyday. Sounds like you need to get into cooking therapy. This would help the whole family (including me) We always need another good cook around. After working with the students the last 4 days I need a Tylenol and a foot rub, so I'm with you Nick. Love ya... Your favorite Aunt!
