Thank you all so much. I want to say you don't know how much it means to either of us, but I know each of you do. This is such a scary thing..all of it.
Reed is so strong, stronger than me. I support him and try my best to be positive, but realistic (which is hard), and then I drive off to work and cry all the way there at least twice a week. He is going on month 4 now, and the doc says if he can't get his pain level down, it's going to be hard to get him into therapy. His calf has already shrunken unbelievably, and his motion in his injured foot is very little. He does take the aircast off alot during the day and work out his foot as much as possible. He wears it mostly when he's up and "crutching" around, especially when we go to Walmart, which is really the only place he goes with me other than church since they have the motorized carts he loves to terrorize me with. lol One big concern I have right now is the pain in his right arm that hasn't gotten better since his nerve block. I'm worried that something may have triggered it to spread.. don't know if that's possible, but it's already spread to his knee, and I'm a worrier by nature. ![]() Anyway, I've written enough already. Thanks again to everyone. You guys are all so warm and helpful. I wish all of you the best. I will get eed to the pc tonight after work, so he can say hello for himself. |
