Start putting weight on it now!

On February 3, 2020February 3, 2020 By Sara HolmIn Zack's kneeLeave a comment

Zack had another follow up with the PA today and got lots of great news including that he should start to really push himself to straighten and flex to 100 degrees, start putting weight on it to get to full weight bearing in 2 weeks and can get off crutches in a week or 2! …

Zack's solving his cabin fever with some extra curricular speech therapy app time. Client completed a verb network strengthening task from 10:36 AM to 3:24 PM (active time = 00:55:16) on Jan 22, 2020 using Verb Set 7 in the Advanced Naming Therapy app. Client was asked to generate up to 3 agents and patients …

PT today!

After over 10 collective hours of calling (but mostly on hold) Optum, Zack has a pt appointment today. Conveniently, it is while my kids are at lunch, recess and pe. Thanks to Christina, my friend who teaches 1st grade, who is going to help my students out of their snowclothes and get ready for PE …

(WordPress has a new editing software that seems like it's easier but I can't figure out to crop pictures. Sorry!) Today, I got home from a run, we had some reuben lunch then Zack was ready for an outing. He had hoped to get to the office today but his sleep is still very irregular …

Sunday 🏈 🏈 Football

On January 19, 2020January 19, 2020 By Sara HolmIn Zack's kneeLeave a comment

We're having a quiet Sunday watching no stakes football where quarterbacks run and move around the field. It's been a revelation for me, having mainly watched Tom Brady for the past many years. I was unable to speak with a human at the parent company of Zack's insurance company on Friday so there is no …

Snow Day for Zack’s follow up appointment

On January 16, 2020 By Sara HolmIn Zack's kneeLeave a comment

Zack's follow up with his orthoped (is that a word?) this morning was initially scheduled for 11 am then moved up to 8:30 for an impending snowstorm. This impending storm even canceled school last night. It is so unusual and so exciting for a school day to be called the night before! Usually, I am …

All going fine 😊

A couple pictures from this week. Monday: Good 📰! Zack's wanting to move and stretch a bit. He has a followup with the ortho surgeon tomorrow. Molly's expanding her territory each day.

Back to kindergarten

Sunday was definitely Zack's best day yet. His new pain medication doesn't seem to make him as drowsy and he can go for a bit longer between each dose. While I was at a Girls on the Run training in the morning, Zack took off his initial bandages and gave his newly shaved knee area …

Blokus

On January 11, 2020January 11, 2020 By Sara HolmIn Zack's knee1 Comment

Today started out particularly slowly as Zack and Molly chose different times to wake up (both very early) then to nap then wake up then back to sleep and so on. I told Molly that I'm going back to school on Monday so she'd have to sync up her peeing with my availability but I …

Sequence

On January 8, 2020January 8, 2020 By Sara HolmIn Zack's kneeLeave a comment

The other day Zack suggested we buy and start playing Monopoly during his recovery, to which I felt a little bleh. But I did enjoy researching board games on the internet for 5 1/2 minutes and found 3 winners. Sequence, Blokus and Exploding Kittens. On my outing last night to get Zack's pain killers, which …
