Limbo

Sorry for not updating recently, plans have changed daily if not hourly and we just couldn't keep up. Rachelle is back to work full time. Pete was doing so well with rehab that as of Monday, he no longer qualified for acute rehab...so the remainder of the week was spent discussing Pete's options. His medical team felt Pete had enough issues that they weren't ready to discharge him quite yet.

On Thursday, we came to the decision that Pete was ready for his next operation.  On Friday, they took donor skin from his thighs to place a skin graft over his abdomen. The surgery went well but Pete will remain in the hospital a little longer as they work on managing the pain from the donor sites. We're hopeful he will be able to come home in the next week, but until then Pete would love to have visitors!

Thanks again for the love and support!
