Well it is 2:30pm and Donovan is being very quiet and resting. He slept most of the morning and isn't eating or drinking (although he had a little bit of a slushy). As Bridget mentioned in the previous posting, they believe this is the normal 3rd day after surgery effect.

The PT is here right now moving his legs and stretching him and he isn't complaining of pain, a good thing! Bridget just stretched his foot and can really feel the effect of the surgery! The therapist is playing with Donovan and Puppy and Donovan is giggling just a little bit.

I was talking to him earlier and when i said, "would you like dad to go sit down and leave you alone" his immediate response was a very stern and determined "YES"! So we are letting him rest and watch Thomas.

Very happy to hear things are on the right track! Great news so far.

(Hmmm...can't imagine where he might get that "stern and determined" streak).

Thanks for sharing these updates, but take care of yourselves as well (sleep on occasion, etc).
