RECOVERY PATH; CHANGES AHEAD


Leif was up early and getting started with his therapy. The first session was PT.  Leif was out walking and doing steps on a longer route. The session continued with a lower body workout with leg weights. ST followed with ‘Advanced Memory Instructions”.  This was challenging and Leif did very well. After lunch OT followed. This was an upper body workout with weights done in a group setting.  Pushing the limits was the way of therapy today. The nurses are cleaning the incision area to remove clots. This will ready the area for stitch removal next week. Leif’s pain levels are lower than a week ago dropping to ‘3-4’ as a base line. Leif is looking good and has a great appetite.  As Leif shared yesterday, good changes are coming. The current inpatient therapy program will shift to an outpatient therapy program this week.  The next phase of treatment is approaching. Leif is strong in faith, being strengthened in body, and ready for the next steps. 

‘Blog Followers’, you are the ‘Soldiers of Prayer’ in Leif’s struggle. We thank you and salute your ‘faith in action’. Many victories are already in place and there will be many more to come. You have a part in these victories!  All Praise unto our Lord, the ‘Lord of Host’.

  1. Leif, wow the last couple of days have really shown great progress with your recovery program... You obviously treated the inpatient therapy very seriously and gave 100%. Now your doctors are talking out patient therapy already. Wonderful! It has been very encouraging to follow your recovery and testament of your faith.
