Wow hard to believe Will's bee here in the hospital a week...We were awakened at 6am this morning by a team of drs coming in to check on Will. They were from the Ortho group. They checked his splint and his very swollen shoulder. They had been concerned about a large hematoma, or blood pooled, in the shoulder but after looking at an xray done yesterday felt that it was ok and would resolve on it's own. They then proceeded to cut off
the splint on his arm. Now he has to start bending the arm to start regaining his range of motion. Then the plastic surgery team came in and looked at his ear and said they would be back in an hour to remove the sutures and the hard plastic "thing" that's been covering the ear. It's been a huge source of irritation to Will.
We're now waiting for physical therapy to come and get him out of bed. It will good for him to move around some. It looks to me as if they are trying to get him ready
to be discharged maybe even today. He is stll in a lot of pain and not looking forward to leaving the hospital. The question is where he will go after discharge.
Montana would be my first choice but the plane ride there could be difficult
So we're just waiting to see what happens later today. I'll keep you posted.

Wadleys,
ReplyDeleteI was hanging out with the Arndts and heard about this for the first time. You will all certainly be in my prayers. Having been hit by a car before, I know it's no fun! God is good and faithful and I know somehow will be glorified by all of this. Love you all and will continue to pray.
