At home

Luie came home, as many know December 23rd. At first the pain was difficult to manage as well as his new friend that he must keep for 4 to 5 months. The first week of school he went 3 out of the 5 days. Monday I dropped him off only to have to turn around and pick him up less then 2 hours later. Last Wednesday was his first day to come home on the bus, it went great, Thursday didn't go so well, someone accidentally hit him in the chest, but thank God there was no damage. This week has been better. He started Monday and Tuesday at 10:30 and came home on the Bus. Today Big Justin dropped him off so he didn't miss any classes. So far no phone calls to pick him up. I hope I'm not jinxing myself. He will get pain time to time but he lays down in the nurses office and it passes after about 20 minutes. He does wake up in pain almost everyday, but I find that if he gets out of bed right away, the walking helps. I give him pain meds and he's good to go. Tomorrow we will try taking the bus to school. Thank you all for your support. Our goals now are for him to gain weight and his blood levels to go up. If that works out then he can have his second surgery at the end of March. Pray and cross your fingers, I have faith he will come out stronger, and better at the end.
