Day 1.. or is Day 2?

It was a typical 1st night post surgery...lots of beeps/interruptions and little sleep. Day 2 has given us some HOPE with the nausea gone and starting to get movement in his legs. The epidural continues to keep him comfortable. Dr. Standard (surgeon) came to see us bright and early this morning with great news revealing that everything looked good during sx. He said there was only slight flattening (good news) of the ball joint, but could tell the ball joint was not heading in the right direction for healing, therefore, just confirmed, for Scott and I, that we made the right decision. Whew!

PT visited with him today. He was a little hesitant b/c of fear of hurting his leg but the therapists did a great job with him. Once in the wheelchair, he cruised the halls to the playroom where a HUGE portable XBox game system was waiting for him. He and Scott had a good time playing against each other. I, on the other hand, used that opportunity to rest on the waterbed in the playroom. Later, he fought taking a rest but soon his little body just gave in and took a 4 hour rest. Which gave mom and dad a few extra winks too. 

Another great PT sessions tonight. And the highlight of the day for Connor was his new friend, Martin, came to visit him. They are now the "fixator twins".
