It’s been a couple of days since our last update but things have been a little crazy since I got back to work. Shawn is going well. They pulled the chest tubes today and are watching overnight to see if he needs some smaller drains placed that can be drained at home. Keep your fingers crossed he won’t be needing those. PleurX drains are supposed to be a bit more comfortable than what he had in place, so if he does need them, let’s hope that’s the case.
Shawn has been really enjoying his visits from Dave and Val. Man have they been life savers. He’s even been cleared to go up to the roof deck which they have enjoyed the last few days. He’s up and walking and I am busting his balls from a distance to work on rebuilding his strength. Shawn has made his room nice and homey thanks to the gifts from the Legner’s that we have both been enjoying.
The dogs are doing well, aside from the return of Arya’s puppy acne. Hopefully with a little peroxide we can get that all cleared up. Both dogs are having fun with the kids and will miss Carson and Madison while they visit Travis and Frinné in Boise.
Time to keep moving forward and get on with wrapping up the residency year and working out my moving plans. I’ve still got plenty of Red Butte shoes to keep me occupied until then. Looking forward to the Violent Femmes show tomorrow night.
