Peter coming home Tuesday D.V

Hi everyone,
Peter had a much better day today. The nausea is subsiding gradually as the strong medication works its way out of his system. He was able to walk without a walker today and practice how to do stairs (although he won't be doing much of that). He will be discharged tomorrow and expects to be home by 1.30pm (by Ambutrans)For the first three months he is not allowed to bend, twist, lift anything over 5lbs and is not supposed to sit for more than a few minutes. He can walk a lot or lie down. He is not allowed any Physio for 3 months, so basically he will lay low, so to speak, and allow the healing to continue. He will be assessed further after this time period. The Surgeon saw him today and reitteratedhow well the surgery had gone and said there had been no surprises ie. everything he had anticipated from the myelogram results had been correct when they opened him up. We of course remember that we are in the Lord's hands and trust him for whatever he has in store for us. We have been reminded once again thatno matter what our situation is , His grace is sufficient for us "for My strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me." 2 Cor. 12 v 9 .
