Today they took Marshall for another CT scan and a bone scan. They also got him up and walking several times today. Medications have been tweaked. I guess tomorrow we will get the information on what his medications will be and then we should go home.
We hope the trip home is uneventful. They don't want Marshall to be in a car for longer than 30 minutes at a time, so a 4-hour drive will take us a bit longer.
We will get physical therapy set up again to build his strength so that he can walk better. And Thursday the palliative care lady will be coming to the house to get all the necessary information to help us deal with the pain. And since the pain is mostly surgical pain, they said he may be able to cut back on pain meds in the next six weeks. They've put him on MS Contin for now.
