Cindy & I are off to find Paul a recliner for future pain medicine-free reading & kingdom commanding. We will send updates when anything news worthy happens.
He has been in the hospital since Sunday (7/26/2009) and is going to have to be there for a few more days. They put a large rod down the inside of his femur and he is recovering now.
Needless to say his bill is going to be steep, and since his livelihood depends on being mobile he is not going to be able to generate cash for some time.
Goal: $3,000
Raised: $1,630.00
Paul was released from the trauma center on Sunday afternoon, much to the protests & chagrin of his parents. He has a titanium rod & 2 large screws holding his left femur together. Our fears were realized on the ride home, when after hitting a small bump in the road, we needed to transfer Paul from Kelly's car to Paul's van floor to keep his leg straight & non-weight bearing. Currently, a very thin & pale patient is home, resting semi-comfortably and receiving outstanding care from nurse Kelly. The prognosis is good but Paul will be on crutches for 2 to 3 months & will be doing in-home physical therapy / power resting.
