HOOOOOO - RAY! (says Jack as he smiles at the camera yesterday morning)...
Next Wednesday will be a day of celebration for SURE - although we will miss all the sweet people at Winship Cancer Center (a special shout out to our tech Greg who has made things so much better for all of us!)
In other news...
We have moved! Jack's new home for the next couple weeks is in Room 365 in the Rehabilitation part of CHOA. The room is cozy, we have a little more space, the bed is comfy, and most importantly, they still serve milkshakes for lunch and dinner. YAY!
It amazes me... I didn't think there could possibly be more sweet, genuine, loving nurses other than all those we had already met through the Aflac Cancer Center, but guess what, they are all over the Rehab ward too! We are feeling right at home and well taken care of, and it helps that...
Jack is doing great so far in rehab! Yesterday was only Day 2 and he is already making improvements. The therapists are teaching us a lot about how we can continue to help him progress outside of therapy, which will be super helpful once we are home.
Jack has had a great attitude about it, and is working hard. We can tell he REALLY wants to get back to where he was before all this began.
The docs in Rehab will meet with Mary today (Friday) and let her know their recommendations as far as how long we'll stay there. Will update soon.
We hope everyone has a great weekend! We certainly feel all the support and prayers daily, so keep 'em coming!
