Doctor today....

He saw the doctor today actually this late morning...x-rays are looking good...shows this big Ole rod in his leg to help hold together while his leg heals and especially round the tumor area and the cloudiness in the x-ray is doing what it suppose to-healing...but the long rod is there if it was ever to change down the road...or if it wasn't healing properly this past five weeks...

The doctor also said he could go off his blood thinners (coumadin) and it should be out of his system in about 3-4 days and then if he needs it go back to using naproxen with his lortabs...naproxen also acts as a form of aspirin too...

He is suppose to start using his walker/cane/crutches - which ever suits him and put weight on his leg and over time more weight but to realize he can't go with any of those choices for the rest of his life...hahaha...doctor said he was taking it well and upbeat...what else can you do but that and try to defy the odds...

We met a nice lady from church and she kept thinking she knew our daughter - she did and finally came over to say hi and well wishes...we her too...recovery from knee surgery...just so many people needing prayers...MaryAnn not sure what's going on in her life - saw pic of her strapping young man who graduated...others making decisions in their lives moving, school, etc...family members needing surgery and friends as well...I pray that our niece who hasn't been home long from the hospital with meds for fighting blood clots - right now is going through surgery for her gall bladder and she is soooo high risk....mom still having problems again with hands swelling and in pain from the gout...steroid therapy didn't work for long nor the other medication used...a friends father not needing heart surgery just stints and glad to hear he's feeling a lot better...Tim talked with him a few days ago...praying that my scrappers hubby is holding and continues doing good...just so many and knowing you can't get them all mentioned in here...so this goes out to all near and far, sick and healing, whatever your needs are, you're in our prayers...:*)
