This morning Archie decided that he wanted to go to Le Peep for breakfast. So we went to breakfast and it was not too loud for him. I think that we will stick with breakfast or lunch during the week rather than dinner or going out for breakfast on the weekend. Afterwards when I asked where we were going Archie said to Walmart to get the white board, calendar and the clock. Our trip to Walmart counted as our 10 am walk. We went home for a little while and then we headed out, to visit one of Archie's vendors where his friend Jimmy works for an open house. Archie got lunch and to catch up with his friend plus that counted for his 12 pm walk. Afterwards, we headed home for the afternoon. We went on our 3 pm walk which was off of our street to the next street over, an actual block. Our 5 pm walk was a short one (3 houses around the corner and down the alley) but I cannot complain since he did his longest walk from our house before that. Tonight our friend Jennifer brought pizza for dinner and we chatted. After about an hour Archie was tired and headed to the bedroom while we talked. Thank you Jennifer for dinner!
It is amazing what a difference it has been since we got home this time versus the first time he was released from the hospital. Whenever I suggest a walk Archie does not fight be about it, he goes and gets his shoes and we go for a walk. I think the schedule was a great idea and it working well so that the day has some structure. He is definitely getting stronger everyday. His attitude overall is positive and he is overall feeling better. I scheduled an occupational therapy evaluation for Friday even though Archie says he does not think he needs it, I am praying that he does not but would just like to hear them tell me that. I also scheduled his follow up infectious disease appointment for Tuesday so we will hopefully have all of our first set of appointments done by Thanksgiving. Archie just went to bed but I told him tomorrow we are handling up on the calendar and the white board.
Please start praying about Archie's appointment with the seizure doctor on Thursday, we pray that he did not have a seizure. Just a reminder if Archie did have a seizure he will not be able to drive for 6 months. IF he did have a seizure we will be okay and work out a plan but would rather not have an additional challenge to face. Thank you everyone for your continuous prayers.
