Thursday Morning Update

This morning was a little stressful.  We usually get the update around 8-8:30 AM and I didn't get a call.  It got to be 9:00, then I went to a meeting at 9:15 and still no call.  My mom called the unit and left a message.  She got a call back that there were a lot of emergencies this morning and that they didn't have a chance to call yet.  That made me feel better that they weren't calling me because Boomer was one of the emergencies.

But, today was good news.  Someone who I had not spoken with before gave the call today because Dr. Bray was busy with the emergencies.  But, the good news.  It's funny for me to say, but he peed on his own! Twice. It's great that he now has control over his bladder and they don't have to catheterize him anymore.  He's making steps back to being normal.  The other really exciting news is that he is more ambulatory.  I'm excited to see what progress he's made when we visit this afternoon.  The tech that called this morning let me know that Dr. Olby was very excited with the progress that he made over night!
