The roller coaster ride continues. The weekend started out okay on Saturday, got a bit rough on Sunday, Monday was a great day, and it's gone downhill since then. We learned this morning that he needs to stay in the hospital for at least @ 10 more days and work with the physical therapists while the pain management doctors work to get his pain stabilized. Today was his first day with physical therapy and he took maybe 100 steps. He's been back in the room for just a few minutes and is exhausted and sleeping soundly. His radiation treatments began on his spine a couple of days ago and will continue through next Friday. We are hopeful that by radiating the vertebrae that received the kyphoplasty, there will be additional pain relief.
We are so blessed by the tremendous number of people who are praying for Larry and our family. I have to believe that we are all holding up as well as we are because God is answering the prayers. Please continue to pray for Larry. He gets so little sleep and I worry that between the pain and the exhaustion he may suffer emotionally, and he needs his emotional strength now more than ever.
Thanks so much,
Terri
