Post Op Day 2

Trent continues to amaze all the doctors and nurses. He is healing SO well! He has far surpassed their expectations with the walking and the surgeon said he is days ahead in his recovery. YEAH!!!! He got up this morning and did the big lap around the floor which is about 450 feet. He is walking so well and his balance is perfect. He learned a bunch of exercises to do to strengthen the muscles he has left and train his leg not to swing inward. His attitude is great and very positive. He loves to hear how he is surprising all the staff with his progress.



Testing out the new feet!




Looking good babe!



Uhh...cheese? It is so nice to have Trent back. For a long time he was not really there mentally but since the surgery he has been regular old Trent, cracking jokes and having fun. I can't believe how well he is doing! It almost makes being in the hospital FUN!!!


We have seen so many blessings in the last two days. My sister Jill nailed it when she said, "The priesthood is REAL!" We are seeing the power of the priesthood so clearly in our lives. We absolutely BELIEVE in the power of the priesthood. There is no denying that. We are so grateful and in awe of the blessings that are being poured out to us. Thank you all for joining us in fasting and prayer to make these things happen. WE WILL WIN THIS FIGHT!!!!
