Wednesday Afternoon Written August 31, 2011 2:57pm

Well, the appointment was interesting this afternoon.  The nurse charted the wounds that were on his leg and looked at his arm.  The Doctor came in asked how it was doing, looked at it and asked if he had seen the xrays of his leg. 

He showed us xrays of his leg, his arm, his spine.  We saw the screws that were in his back, the mri of his back, how the rods come up the spine.  It was all really interesting things to see.  I asked him if we could see the cervical spine xrays, mri and we looked at it.  He saw some bulging disks but indicated it could have been from age.  He saw no obvious fractures in the neck.  Hopefully tomorrow when we see the neuro surgeon he will be able to ditch that collar.  It's a catch 22 ~ keep the collar and go home or  ditch the collar and stay longer in rehab.  It's like Lord you will be done, you know what we need and when we need it.

We go back in October to see the ortho Dr.  They will take xrays at that time.  I thought it was kinda funny they didn't take xrays today. 

I'm sorry I haven't been keeping up the schedule.  We haven't been getting it until late in the evening and honestly sometimes I'm to tired to remember to put it on.  It's 3:08 now and Max still has physical therapy scheduled from 4 - 4:30. 

Hopefully I'll get tomorrows schedule up before tomorrow!
