Pai was expecting a visit today from the Physical Therapist, but he was not able to make it.
He is still having trouble sleeping. When I asked him today, why he thinks he isn't sleeping well during the night, he said it's because of the pain. Pain medicine helps, but he continues to be somewhat uncomfortable because wound is still healing.
Pai looked good tonight. His color is good, cheeks rosy. He did take a nap during the day today without any sleep aide. Hopefully, he will get a good night's sleep tonight.
The incision is looking better and beginning to heal more.
Mae has been instructed to wash the shrinker a couple of times a week. It needs to be hand washed and hung dry. It takes a while, so Pai stopped wearing the shrinker for about 24 hours. Susan, the Prosthetist plans on ordering another shrinker, but she wanted to wait because she knows Pai's leg will shrink and he will need another size shrinker.
Overall for me, it's been a good week. I am doing my best to stay in the present and not in the "scary" future. Trusting God along the way. God has Pai's journey under control. I have to remind myself that I can get out of God's way and He doesn't need my help. This whole experience is strengthening my faith in God. If only I could surrender ALL to Him.
