It's Saturday afternoon and we are watching the Rangers play the Angels on TV. Mikey has been busy to past few days with physical and occupational therapy. Yesterday he went for his first walk which was about 50 feet in the hallway. Today we went for a few walks. One around the floor with the therapist and then later down to the fourth floor to the Aikman Endzone. That is a fun place to go play games and do different activities.
He was pooped when we got him back to the room. Then the occupational therapist came by and we played Connect Four and some other task to work on his fine motor skills in his left hand. He will need to continue working on his left hand and leg strength and coordination.
His surgeon also came by today and said he is making good progress. He will probably be transfered to the rehab facility sometime next week. Most likely Tuesday or Wednesday. He also said that Mike will have another MRI in about 6 weeks once the edema in his neck has gone down. I asked him how much of the tumor he removed and his estimate was that he got about 90% of it. Got to be happy with that!
Still no word on the pathology report. I'm guessing we will see those middle of next week.

It all sounds good. I am glad to hear that Mikey is doing laps around the hospital. Just make sure that Dad doesn't cheat when playing connect four. I know he will pout if he looses:). Thinking about you and praying often! Love you guys.
