Day 62, Diane

Today marks the 2 full months since this 1st happened and for this anniversary Scott got to walk outside for the 1st first time! He also got to get in Vader (our car) but only sit for a few minutes...how rude lol
For PT today she had a series of tests outside she had him do. Including getting into our car, stepping up & down on curbs and walking up & down hills. He did very well. After this he navigated his way back to the gym on the 4th floor. He was able to get on the treadmill and walk slowly to help get his stride longer. Today was the 1st day he did 1 & 1/2 hours of PT all at once. Scott says, "It was brutal!" Luckily it was at the end of his day so he got to sleep it off.
I missed ST today because it was Coby's family BBQ day at school and he really wanted me and Cora there. Scott say's "It was fine. There was a new person." That's all I got :) OT was just a 1/2 hour of getting ready for the day since he had a long PT. He's doing very well with getting totally ready, he only needs assistance to move around. All this helps him get closer to coming home. Another step in Scott getting better was this morning, he asked if I was going to go to work again. I laughed and said, I'm sure as soon as we're ready they'd be happy for me to help. He's says we're ready so tomorrow night I'm going to work for the 1st time in two months...wow that seems very weird. I know he can't wait for the day that he gets to go back to work for the 1st time. Funny how you never realize how much working is a part of your life until you can't do it anymore.
He's really enjoying having visitors! Tara, Besty and her family were able to come visit. Her son Henry is taking after his uncle and hates hospitals lol
