Good morning! Hope everyone had a good week-end!

We've had a decent week-end. Didn't do much of anything. Stayed in most of the time and watched movies.

We did go to Walmart yesterday and Bill walked around for awhile until he needed to sit down. So, I settled him in at McDonalds with a milkshake and I finished the shopping. He did much better than I thought he would do.

His leg is not swollen anymore, and it is not red. But there is a knot in the area and it is still very painful to touch or to walk on. His pressure ulcer on his heel looks much better so maybe he'll be able to start rehab before long. He starts physical therapy today so he'll probably be working on some of the machines.

After therapy we have no real plans. Hopefully we will get our dressing supplies today. We got an emergency shipment on Saturday and it was supposed to be for 5 days. But, there were only enough 4 x 4 packages for 1 change. There were supposed to be 2 boxes in the shipment and there were 2 packages. I managed to get some separated without compromisint the sterility. So, hopefully the UPS driver got his head on straight or got his glasses fixed so that he can see the sign on the apartment with the number on it and deliver the boxes. He said they were undeliverable because there was no apartment number on the building! Not only is there a number outside the condo, there is a sign at each stairwell listing the apartments in each stairwell!

Have a great day everyone! I'll let you know how therapy goes!
