Good afternoon, AU family!
I have so much good news to report regarding Wayne's recovery from surgery last week!
Today was a HUGE day! Physical therapy had him doing chair pushups (dips), etc. Then came Speech therapy & he was able to put the one-way valve on his trach & surprised the therapist with the strength of his voice! He got his reward - that much hoped-for cup of ice chips! (He has had nothing by mouth since last Wednesday).
Cheeky monkey! He had asked for some water & a swab to rinse his mouth out... As I turned my back to fetch something else, I caught motion out of the corner of my eye... the sly bugger had taken a sip from the cup!
He will officially start liquids tomorrow, but they want to be sure he's not leaking into any tissues anywhere from the mouth.
He is cleared to get a wheelchair, even with all the IV pole, He's very keen to get rolling since I told him it would reduce the swelling in his arms & hands...

ALL GLORY TO OUR HEAVENLY FATHER!!!
Auntie M,@Dennis1776 has been practically holding my hand since surgery day. We had everything planned out for the kids to be here in NOLA vacationing during the surgery, but then it was pushed back a week... But that's OK because Dr. Hasney was here to do his Stage 1 of the surgery himself, freshly back from vacation. Still, I was all my byself in the big city & he knew it & held my hand through the 10 LONG hours of surgery. Bless his darling wife for sharing her husband with me!
Wayne had 3 surgical teams - Dr. Hasney removed the old jaw bone (and told me later he was able to take 30% less than he had thought because the bone was still healthy on the right side)! I'm claiming that as part of the healing God began BEFORE the surgery!
@QakeLady told me last Wednesday that she & her mom had prayed he got out of surgery early & so it came to pass!
Dr. Hanson spoke with me at 6pm to tell me it went great & finished over 45 min. early..
.. because it was easier to remove than he had thought, even with the 3D computer modeling. Then he told me someone would collect me in a few minutes & take me to the ICU room where he'd be coming out of anesthesia.
That's where things went crazy. Nobody came to get me. I waited 5 hours & all the staff went home & I couldn't find anyone. I read the wall sign that said, "To contact Recovery, use the red phones at the desk." Well, I found the red phones, but they weren't connected to any phone lines... so I began to fret a bit.
I said, "Grandfather, something has screwed up. Please help me find a person who can take me to Wayne." and about then, a lady wheeling a patient came by. I explained to her what had happened & she said to follow her. At the first floor, we found out where they had put him & then she showed me to the SICU floor. What a relief! (Thank you, God!)
I was able to be there when he was waking up. He was dazed & confused, but he knew my face & my voice
