It is hard to believe that it all began six weeks ago. Archie and I were just discussing today that it seems so long ago that the aneurysm happened. We have gone through so much during this time. I am so thankful that Archie is with us today and that he doing so well overall considering how much was done to his brain in the past 5 weeks.
Today Archie slept in until 7 am. He got up and took a bath and then he ate some breakfast. My sister and nephews came over to visit because Archie wanted to see the boys today if possible so Jessica stopped for a visit before a playdate. We all went for a walk around half of the block (3 houses, around the corner and down the alley) and then they visited for a little while. Then Archie took a nap, ate some lunch and then rested a little more. We went for a walk around the other half of the block (5 houses, around the corner and down the alley). Then he rested a little bit more. Archie was having some stomach issues today so he did not eat any dinner or go for his third walk. I am hoping tomorrow he feels a little better.
I started trying to schedule appointments first thing this morning. The appointment with the neurologist to see if he had a seizure will be on Halloween. I made an appointment with primary doctor on Friday. We are getting his stitches out a week from today. When I tried to make his physical therapy appointments I was informed that he would need speech therapy and occupational therapy. BUT speech therapy is not covered by his insurance plan because it is like home healthcare and that is not covered so, I am thankful that my friend Andrea is a speech therapist and willing to meet with Archie. The other issue is that Archie does not think he needs occupational therapy. He does not think they will be able to help him crawl through attics and his job. He has agreed to go to the evaluation next week but he is not agreeing to anything. So all of the appointments will be completed within 2 weeks today.
