Dad ups and walking

Recommended Posts

Got a call this morning from dad he already swung his legs out of the bed, got dressed, and walked to the chair. After that PT came in and he walked 40ft without hardly any pain well he actually said he little but from the surgery they pull the muscles apart. The good news is the hospital PT thinks he will only have a week of therapy at the rehab center he was at so hopefully in a week dad will be home.

I work at a hospital with a joint department.   

 

Those surgeries are VIOLENT with the things they do to you.  He'll be sore but he'll bounce back quickly.  

 

As you can see they want the patient up and walking ASAP.
