Just an update on Nathan. He has seen the chiropractor every day this week and seems to be making some improvement with his range of motion. The first day that we took him he could barely look up or down and that has improved greatly.
He has been quite the trooper wearing the neck brace. I have to make him lay down pretty frequently because it starts to ache after he has been up for a while. So he gets to lay on the couch and ice his neck take a pill, that the chiropractor prescribed, 4 times a day.
The worse part of the whole thing is that the doctor told him he couldn’t ride his Uncle Johnny’s 4 wheeler while he is in Delaware. Today at the chiropractors he was bargaining with the doctor. “Just one ride?” ”How about if I wear the neck thingy while I ride?” Maybe I have a lawyer on my hands because every answer from the doctor brought a “counter offer” from Nathan. Poor kid.
As for me I am recovering slowly, thanks for asking. I am tired from having to remember to give Nate his pills and getting the ice pack from the freezer and under his neck, just right. Let alone all the doctor’s appointments. This has been really stressful but I imagine that I will survive it. Who would’ve thought that I was going to have all this to deal with. Being traumatized has been rough. I’m just saying…
This week I am making another cake for a friend, a Transformers cake. I’ll have to post pictures when it is done. I have lots of ideas running through my head but they are a bit muddled by the whole “Nathan is injured and I am traumatized” thing. So if the cake is terrible I really can’t be held responsible.
