He’s Home!
Ben was released from the hospital yesterday and is doing well. He stayed in bed most of the afternoon and at dinner time, he wanted to go to the kitchen, so I preset his walker at the top of the stairs (5 steps from ground level to the main floor) and he held on to the railings on both sides while walking up, while I followed behind hanging on to his safety belt. We had dinner and then went back downstairs to watch TV for about an hour and was ready to settle for the night. From the time we arrived at home, he refused to ask me for assistance and insists he can walk to the bathroom by himself. I watched him a couple of times and he's ok.
BUT when I was half asleep around 4am, I heard him get up. When he didn't return after 30 mins, I got up and found him in the kitchen watching TV. He went up the stairs by himself!!!🤨Yikes!!! No wonder they had to restrain him to the hospital bed. I warned him I would do the same or tie his feet together.
Otherwise, all is well. He is getting stronger.
Your prayers are working miracles. God is awesome!! Thank you for your support and love. God bless you all. Our hearts overflow with love for all of you.
Aloha,
Lori & Ben
