The Hand is Healed!!
We had a follow-up appointment yesterday with Dr. Mosley at Baptist Orthopedics (Dr. Stromeyer is no longer with the practice). He said Joe’s hand has healed nicely where the tendon was repaired.

This is great news for Joe’s mobility because now we can start physical therapy for him to learn to use the walker without the platform and then eventually move to crutches.

(the platform attached to the walker. Joe walks holding the walker with the right hand and the left elbow resting on that platform.)
We go back to Birmingham on September 3 to find out when he can start physical therapy for walking on the left leg however, Doctor Mosley looked at it in xray yesterday and said it looks beautiful. (Yay!!)
Please keep Joe’s brother Jason in your prayers as he goes to the doctor next week for his heart.
Buckle Up!
Love, Cricky & Joefish
