I just got off the phone with Dr. Bray for Boomer's morning update. She said that he did really well walking with the sling this morning and walked himself outside and went down and they lowered the sling and he was able to potty-- which is great! He's able to stand a bit more on his own once you get him up in the standing position and tries to take some steps. Dr. Bray's quote was that he's "leaping and bounding" ahead with progress.
I asked her if she would be able to show me how to use the sling to walk him this afternoon for our visit and so she said that she would and so I'm excited to not have my back hurt from walking him around. I also checked on his discharge date and she is looking into seeing when he would be able to come home, so it depends on when they counted the 7 days of hospitalization that he needed for the study. So he might be coming home on Sunday or Monday. Hopefully I'll find out the answer this afternoon when I go to visit him.
I hope he can come home soon I am sure he will be so happy to be out of the hospital.
