We appreciate your prayers very much. Carol and I are about worn out, I'm running on about 3 hours sleep and Carol got a couple.
The therapist came in this morning and Brian took his first step with a walker. Whew, that was a hard thing to do because of his fear of the pain moving and supporting his leg on his own. But, my brave little man did take several steps and dad sure was proud. He walked again for a few more steps this evening and was sitting in a chair. If he will start eating now and doesn't require additional pain meds, he will be released in the morning.
The surgeon kept the rod he took out and gave it to Brian for a souvineer. Thanks again for your prayers.
