Tuesday afternoon

Matt's getting back into therapy and doing pretty well. He's been out of his room for most meals the past two days and getting lots of comments about how great he looks. I forget that most people weren't used to seeing Matt without a helmet. His PT cleared him today to be independent on the unit with his cane. Not that he spends much time alone, but it's nice to know that she thinks he's safe and strong enough to move around as he pleases.

Speech is still difficult and he's having a hard time communicating which is quite stressful. He's more aware of time and does not like the idea of how long he's been in the hospital. He really wants to know how much longer he's going to be here and it's difficult to explain that we just don't know.
