Ron's physical therapy will start tomorrow. An activity plan with goals and a means to measure progress are going to be helpful. At this point we don't really don't know what reasonable expectations are for Ron to regain his strength. The steroids have taken a toll; he is not able to walk unassisted. The walker has been a godsend, and for hospital appointments that require several stops, wheelchairs are available at the door. There are always other family members or hospital personnel who offer to help us at every turn. (especially getting off and on elevators). I carry our belongings in a samsonite wheeled large briefcase--appointment info, meds, snacks, water, IPad, etc.
Ron has had slight relief from the bladder issues today. I hope he makes a lot of progress rapidly. If he could just sleep an hour at a time, it would help him so much.
