Hello All. J spent the day working hard. I have decided that rehab hospital is like camp. J gets a daily schedule that keeps him moving from activity to activity every 45 minutes or so. He spent the morning in occupational therapy and using the electric stimulation on his quadriceps muscles. After lunch was physical therapy and the CPM machines. After dinner and visiting hours, he was back on the CPM machines to end his day. I was amazed to see that he has gained range of motion in both knees, particularly his right knee. Today he also got his wheelchair. This chair can be moved using just his right hand. This will allow him to be much more independent.
The days ahead will be very challenging, but the progress is coming very fast. I am so proud of what J has already accomplished!
Love,
Cara
