1st Day Home Alone

Michael is home today by himself and I'm here at work worrying about him- it's going to be a long day! His pain is pretty bad today, but he was able to get some sleep last night thanks to some pain meds. I'm worried about him getting up and down by himself through out the day today with no one there to help him and 2 little pups wanting to be let in and out every 5 minutes. I have a voicemail in with the Tosh Orthopedic Specialty Hospital that we were referred to, to schedule an appointment for him to be checked out and start physical therapy with. When I spoke to Michael this morning he told me he is going to try to put some weight on his ankle today, which the doctor told him to start doing it as soon as he thought he could, but just to be VERY careful in doing so. We haven't checked the swelling and bruising yet today- we'll do that when I get home. But last night the swelling was down, which is wonderful! He hasn't been able to feel his toes since this happened because the swelling was so extreme. The doctor said as soon as the swelling goes down some he'll have the feeling back in his toes. Poor kid!!
