December 1, 2014 Discharge Day

Jayden is medically stable but his spirit is low.  He still cannot walk and complains of intermittent numbness/tingling in his hands and pain in his legs.  We are hoping we saw the worst of this and are ready to head home to be with family.  We miss baby sister, our dog Bailey, and normal family routines.
PT and OT came early this AM to see Jayden one last time.  He sat up for the first time in 10 days unassisted!  He was up without help for about 1 minute.



We returned home today and Jayden said he just wanted to go to Chili's for lunch and then decorate the tree at home.  We went to Chili's and he sat next to dad in the booth to help him sit up.  He did not last long even with assist so we ate quickly while he laid on our lap and then we headed home.
We got home and dad grabbed a tree and strung the lights on it as promised.  As happy as I am to have him home, my heart still hurts.  He is so sad and depressed while he lays on the couch watching us.  He just wants to get up and help.  It is heartbreaking.
