On Saturday night, Matt and I took Fergus out for a walk for the first time. We waited until the evening, when the day was cool. Putting Fergus in my sling, we walked around the Ranken Jordan walkway in the back, showing the different plants and trees to him. He loved watching the leaves move in the wind.
Last night I was able to straighten his back against the bed (for the first time) while doing lots of stretches. He is still a bit stiff but I was able to get him to stretch a little further. To help distract him, I turned on his mobile over the bed and he watched the animals go round. Today, he will get his trach changed again to a smaller size and his morphine dose will again be reduced.
Please keep praying that he will move his limbs and continue to heal. thank you! esther
