Hey all! Just wanted to give you a quick update on Brian... We went to the Dr. again today and they checked his leg. They were quite happy with how everything looks. Of course, his foot and leg are still pretty swollen (especially when he's up and moving around... It's fine if he keeps it elevated). His wounds are healing up nicely and the bruising on his leg has really decreased. They informed him today that he can start putting light weight on the foot/leg. He was also told that he should begin physical therapy... The funny thing was that when the Dr. told him that he would need physical therapy, we immediately asked if he could recommend someone. His response was that he couldn't recommend anyone, but he could tell us the names of people that he would NOT recommend! :) Interesting... We ended up finding out later that it's illegal for the doctors here to recommend other doctors.
Brian is improving on a daily basis. He's getting around on the crutches quite well now. He actually went into work yesterday for a couple of hours (his boss just had a baby, so they had a party in the office for him... He came to the apartment, picked Brian up and brought him to the office so that he could join in the festivities... Very nice!) so he was quite happy about that! He was definitely excited to just get out of the house, and I know that he's looking forward to being able to get outside on a more regular basis. :)
We'll continue to keep you posted on his recovery... Miss you much!
