Chance had a pretty decent night last night. He still woke up regularly but it was more like every 1 to 1 1/2 hours. Much better.

He was allowed to sit up today, so this morning, I sat him up (with his help). Well, that was a mistake. About 2 minutes later, he told me his belly hurt and then he threw up. They think it is something to do with him moving around. After that, he felt much better and for the rest of the morning and afternoon, we practiced sitting up in bed for about 10 to 15 seconds at a time.

Thank goodness we did because then PT came in to work with him.

Chance walked today about 50 feet! He held my hand and the PT guy (Matt) held onto him for support and we walked as a group. When we got back to the room, Chance got to sit in a wheelchair. By that time, he was tired and just wanted to get back in bed, but he had to stay in the chair for at least an hour. We went down to the playroom twice to see the fish. He didn't have any interest in them right now, but I did.

Right now, he is laying in bed sweating and shaking. His head hurts pretty bad. He doesn't have a fever any higher that it has been so we will see how he feels in a little while. I had to give him another pillow because the one he had is soaked.

Jane from the HemiFoundation came to visit today. It was nice to have someone to sit with for awhile. Chance's IV machine was beeping and you could see it was driving his head crazy and she went to get someone to turn it off. I have one of my monster headaches too. She sat with Chance and I went to get some Motrin. I hope they work tonight.

He got his first piece of mail down here. Even though he doesn't feel all that great, he had his finger sticking in the hole of the envelope to open it. He loves getting mail. It made him smile when I told him he had it. Thank you Carol.

I don't have any pictures today because Mr. Pouty Pants wouldn't let me take any of him standing or walking. Maybe tomorrow.

One more day closer to being home. Talk to you all tomorrow.
