...and the beat goes on

Steve’s progress continues …. he started on clear liquids, sat up for a couple of hours and walked some more today.  They stopped the epidural and he went on a morphine pump where he pushes a button every so often for a little bit as needed, which is pretty regularly.  The transition was difficult and he was in serious pain for awhile but they have it pretty much under control tonight …. hurts, but it’s manageable. 

Tomorrow a couple more tubes might come out and he’ll walk some more … all progress!  The doctor is very pleased and mentioned tentatively that if all continues without any problems coming up, he’ll possibly be able to go home sooner rather than later, although he wouldn’t be more specific than that :-)

hugs,
