Another great day thanks to all those prayers! The day started at 5am for us, Bridger was just awake and not about to go back to sleep. He had an early nap and has been playing the rest of the day. We worked on using his leg muscles by having him bend down to pick toys up over and over again. It is crazy how much strength he has lost even though he stands and moves around our room throughout the day. I guess our room isn’t that big. He also got to stay up until 10 pm playing vedio games because he had to swallow a med. And it had to go in at 10 on the dot. He hates to drink medicine he would rather swallow a pill but this medicine can’t be given as a pill. I guess if swallowing meds at 10 pm is all we have to worry about in a day, I will gladly take it.
I happen to be one of those people with the awsome ability of for getting names. You know when you see some one and you can’t remember their name but you still carry on a conversation with them as if you did. Well not only did I not know a pesons name I thought she was a completely different person. It happened to be Bridger’s Immunology Dr.(In our defense we have only met with her three times and the last time was in May. Today when I saw her she was standing out side our room window and when she came in she had a gown and mask on). I thought she was the social worker for this unit. I asked her for the address of some of the charity foundations so I could send thank you cards to them. She was very polite and said I think you will have to get those from floor 12. I was persistent and said “Do you see them very often? (Thinking maybe she could just hand deliver them) Do you think you will see them soon?” Finally something she said clicked in my fussy head and in utter dismay I knew she was not the social worker but indeed our Dr. However it still took me rambling on about how stupid I felt for not recognizing her, and Bridger showing her all his toys, to give me enough time to rack my so called brain and remember her name just in time to say “Goodbye Dr. Hansen” as she walked out the door.
A great day! I am so happy for you, Jana and Bridger! Have a wonderful weekend. I look forward to your posts every day to see how you are doing. You are in our thoughts and prayers.

that is so funny! I hope she got a chuckle out of all that. It's not like you don't have a million people in and out all day or anything! Go numbers!
ReplyDeleteThat is funny:) At least your brain kicked in. I know mine wouldn't have:) I too enjoy reading your blog. It's nice to be able to get on anytime and see how you're doing! You're doing a great job with it! That's great about his numbers!!! WHOO HOO:)
ReplyDeleteWoohoo for great numbers!
ReplyDeleteSo I'm glad I'm not the only one who is bad with names. I repeatedly call this one lady I serve with the wrong name in the middle of large meetings with everyone staring at me. It's classy. ;) But you thought of it on time! I usually remember names MUCH later. Like, when they're gone...
