The last two days have been good days. I really enjoyed spending most of the day yesterday with Randy. I didn’t get to change his dressing but we just hung out.

Today in recreational therapy he made fudge in a baggy for Men’s Life Group tonight. Interesting but I’m not sure I want to taste it. I want them to continue teaching him to cook so he can take over in the kitchen when he gets home. I also took one of his old shirts to the hospital. Before he couldn’t keep it buttoned but today it just hung on him. He may get on that transplant list sooner than we think.

His exit wound is still draining so we are changing it every day. I did get to do it today. All by myself! Not too bad but there is plenty of room for improvement. Fortunately I have over a week to keep working on it. 

ETA to home is May 25. Yikes, I’m not ready for it yet. I still have some more work to do in the house to make sure he can get around okay with his cart. He seems to really have the hang of changing his power source from the Power Module to batteries. Tomorrow I take the test. I don’t think it will be a problem but it’s scary since it could be really life or death. Thank God, he is in control.
