Happy New Year!
How richly blessed we have been in the past year, our merciful Father gives strength to all His children. This has been evident to us in the past year especially in the past 2 months.
Now it seems i'm going back on my word to only blog once a week or so, but since blogging last a few things have changed. A few exciting and well I guess they are all kind of exciting
yestarday (Friday) Nate had his first tub bath since entering the hospital....this means that his skin grafts have healed very well and according to one plastic surgeon (not Nates official surgeon but one covering for him) he doesn't think Nate will need another surgery, this will be confirmed on Tues with Nate's 'official" surgeon.
The other thing was that Nate was able to go outside for the first time as well. We were able to be outside with his Dad and enjoy some "wonderful" hamilton "fresh" air.
The last bit of info, is that Nate will most likely be going to the Henderson for rehab as the rehab center on Wellington, is not suitable at this time for Nate. He needs a specialized program to help with muscle building and range of motion for multiple limbs, this too will be confirmed next week (though we don't know when he will be moved there) hopefully as more doctors need to be contacted first, and Nate's heart arrythmia doctors need to be okay with the move as well. Yes, Nate has had approximately 12 different teams of docotrs each specializing in a different areas, and we have been informed that he will meet about 3 new teams in the coming weeks. That's a whole lot of doctors for one guy and this doesn't include the ICU team and all the residents etc.
Well I hope this is all the new info and I will blog again when we have the latest updates avaliable.
Wishing you all the Lord's continued guidance, blessing and protection during the year ahead. You remain in our prayers.
