Recovery Continues

Got a couple of great reports today!

First, we got a call from Dr. Han with the results of this week's blood work.  Everything looks really good!  All the inflammatory markers are back within normal range!  We're hoping that since his incision finally closed up, the doctor will pull the PICC line next week when we see him.

Secondly, we went for a follow-up visit with our surgeon today.  CJ had a couple of x-rays taken, then we saw the doctor.  Dr. Dassinger was happy with where CJ is in his recovery, and he was glad to see both incisions had finally closed.  The x-rays looked good.

The doctor said that CJ was free to do whatever activities he felt comfortable with, except things like organized football and, of course, no swimming with the PICC line.  Normally, he would have us come back in 6 months, but since CJ had the bar infection, he wants us to come back in 3 months.

That's about all for now.  Hopefully, next week, I'll be able to report that the PICC line is out, and CJ is able to enjoy the rest of his summer without any limitations!
