Resting


Last night he was feeling better. As you can tell by the pictures! You can see a difference in his face!! We can.


We were all tired last night, Maddie was tuckered out!


Here is Nala in one of her favorite position when she sleeps!


The patient was starting to get lippy with me! He was feeling pretty good last night.


This weekend Brandon's parents came into town, to help with things. And let me tell you what a blessing that was. His mom is a Nurse, so her help has been greatly appreciated. His Dad, well lets just say he doesn't know how to rest. He came here with a servants heart this weekend. Helping around the house, trimming plants, cleaning, and just doing things Brandon would be doing if he could. This was a great help. His mom helped with cleaning and cooking and taking care of Brandon while I get things done by running around, yesterday I seemed like I was on the go picking up things, taking Maddie to the vet and so on. Last night I was really tired, but we did all go out and get Ice cream.
Brandon has been doing really good. The mornings are harder. He usually is running a temp. His arm is swollen, so we need to make sure that he is keeping it propped up. The evenings he becomes himself more. Especially tonight because its sunday night football, and his team is on GO BEARS!!
Just so you all know his face is getting much better, today though it was really sensitive so we couldn't do as much scrubbing. He is taking morphine around the clock, and if the pain becomes over powering he has codine. He is eating lots of protein, and drinking tons of Propel. He needs to be drinking lot of water. I need to get things around for tomorrow. It will be a early morning for sure. Leaving the house at 4:45am, since he needs to be at the hospital around 5:30. I will update tomorrow. Hopefully they will have wireless internet!

Praying for you both right now...may God's touch be on Brandon and the doctors this morning during surgery. May He guide the hands of the drs and give you peace. Lord, give Brandon a quick recovery and very little pain. May HE be glorified through this process.

Love you both! Kris
