Peaks and Valleys

We're twelve days post-op.  Ricky is able to walk around the house a little more, take a shower (love that shower chair!) with a little assistance and even play a video game in his new pink chair.  I will talk about the pink chair in a future post. :)

Pain management continues to be a primary focus.  Some days, Ricky feels strong enough to reduce the medication dosage and other days, the pain climbs high on the scale and can be close to unbearable.  I remembered what the doctor said before we left the hospital, "you can expect peaks and valleys in recovery."
