Progress not Perfection, Hospital Fatigue, and a Curfew to Spice Things Up…Rehab Week 6
Friends...what a week last week was. I honestly don’t even know where to begin really. My heart is saddened for our nation.

There’s no real way around it, this week has been a hard one.

Walk it Out! Rehab Day 11-14.

Here I go again with the multiple days in one update. Rehab life is busy busy busy and I feel like it is just so much easier to lump a few days into one post.

Sleepy Sundays pave the way for Busy Mondays! Rehab Day 3 & 4
So sorry for the 2 days in one update but things slow down a whole lot here on Sundays so there wasn’t a whole lot of exciting things to talk about yesterday so I figured I’d lump two days in to one blog. 😬 Sunday is Everett’s “rest day” from therapy which meant that he … Continue reading Sleepy Sundays pave the way for Busy Mondays! Rehab Day 3 & 4
