Fun Day

Today was pretty good too. Trent is still dealing with post op pain but doing well. His incision looks beautiful and is healing really well. The holes from the drains are hardly draining anything at all but his leg and side are a bit swollen. He keeps complaining of being sore and I have to remind him that he is now forcing a little tiny muscle to do the work of several large muscles. He is getting pretty good at getting himself in and out of bed. He gets around pretty much all by himself. He still needs some help when he has been in one position for extended periods of time but is mostly independent now. He still doesn't eat with us at the table because those darn chairs are just too hard on his bum! So he eats on the fluffy couch instead.



We got Trent outside for a bit this evening to watch the kids learn to ride bikes. We showed off some of the tricks we have been teaching Scout and that was about all he could handle.



It is pretty scary to watch Trent change physically. He is starting to lose his eyebrows and eyelashes and I don't love that. I knew it would come but I secretly hoped it wouldn't happen to him. It makes him really look like a cancer patient. Little by little this is all starting to sink in. My husband has cancer. Cancer is our life. Hope is our future.
