Good day to All!
Mark had an appt. yesterday with his orthopedic specialist at Kaiser/Oakland. Mark told me everything went well and the doctor was very pleased how his left leg has healed (with quite a long pin down the front of his shin). The right leg is healing very well and the pieces of bone seem to be calcifying together and the doc told him he did not believe he would need any further surgery on that leg either.
What wonderful news and soooooo much gratitude to Stanford Univ. Hospital for doing all of his surgeries on those legs prior to transfer.
Mark stated the doctor did tell him he could start some showers now with that brace but the brace has to stay on until December or so. Mark seems to be doing very well managing that leg in rehab and moving along in the walker for a pretty far distance now. He is getting stronger, putting some weight back on and has a good appetite again. His spirits seem high and they keep him pretty busy during the day.
Still no idea when he might be coming home but with the progress he is making — won’t be long now.
Enjoy a great holiday w/end!
Hugs, Tal and Donna
