All,
Finally talked with Sam over the weekend. She says Ron is about the same, although he's talking better. The physical therapist told her she feels a little muscle contraction when they move his left leg (the most affected side). Apparently they pick him up with some kind of a hoist to get him upright. Then his feet are put into a type of shoe and they get his legs moving back and forth. They also help him stand upright with what she called a tilt board so his legs move better when he can stand taller. He goes to the dining room for meals and eats regular food now, but not enough so they're trying to improve his appetite. They're doing another ultrasound of his back to see what's going on with the hematoma and she'll probably get those results about mid-week. He still has pain in his leg, but it's not constant. It seems to happen when one leg "flops" to the side.
Sam says it's still one day at a time so keep those good thoughts flowing in their directions.
