Today Michael had OT and PT. In OT he was tested to see if he could feel items in his hands without looking at them. He has sensation in both hands so he was able to correctly identify all the items!
He also was given a piano and he played some tunes. He has noticed that his hands don't remember the notes as easily as they once did.
His dexterity is slowly returning.
A number of the exercises were done standing up, his stamina is improving and his oxygen needs are slowly decreasing. When he first started exercising his oxygen requirements went up substantially, now he rarely goes about a setting of 4 liters.
I brought our guest cat home for the weekend and he immediately went to seek out Michael and crawled up on his lap.
Today Michael helped get the house ready for Shabbat. One of his regular tasks is to put the candles on the table. Today when he put the candlesticks on the table, Rebecca reminded him that he was on oxygen. I carefully set the candles on the cook top where they will be away from Michael and his oxygen.
