PT 101 (still going)

-
If you are confused by the title, read previous post.

Day 3: The question today is what about the timer.  Is it still necessary or not?  So, we went with not. Wake Up - Dry Pull Up!  No timer.  After about an hour and a half, we take a restroom break.  The next one I leave up to him.  I am vacuuming and he is playing with Ty.  He runs to the bathroom and shuts the door!  Unfortunately he was rolling all of the toilet paper off the roll, but he did need to go (That COUNTS!)  Lunch, Break, Nap, Break, Trip to Town.  Yes we are brave.  No problems! Day 3 is a success!  No timer, but lots of reminding and several forced trips!  On the plus side, he only asked for candy once.

Day 4: Today has been fairly smooth, no timer is still working fine.  We are both learning how this works.  One accident early, one stopping to tell me he needed to go!  Its nap time again, so we will see how the day ends.  The question at the end of everyday, what should be different tomorrow to move this process forward.  I should probably go and read back over some of those blogs to figure that out!

Room Service

Justin has been moved to a room this morning!  He is doing great!  All of the doctors and nurses are very excited about his progress.  Before leaving ICU, they removed most of his “stuff” (except for one IV).  This allow him to move around more freely, which is the next step.  Justin will be getting up and walking around this afternoon.  He is also just starting to eat again.  If you think about it, he hasn’t had anything since Monday night supper.  So, it will be like learning how to eat after the stomach virus.  We are praying this doesn’t make him sick.  They will also be giving pain medicine by mouth, so we are also praying that his pain continues to stay under control! He is making such great progress!  I think he is far ahead, especially with moving around, than he was this far out of last year with his surgery!  That is exciting!  Praising the Lord for this! Loving your comments, I read them to Justin as he is dozing in and out.  I can’t wait to read them to him when he is

Charles – Justin’s father and grandfather both had the first name of Charles!  Charles means strong, manly; valiant one. Elliot – Jehovah is my God – When we first talked about the name, we were still talking about other options until we found the meaning!  We love the meaning of his name! Thank you for playing along in ou
