first day post surgery

hey yall! hannah here. i will be short and sweet since its time to get the kiddos to bed. nathan has had a really great day, besides having the worst headache of his life (which he still only rated a 6 out of 10.) he had physical therapy come by this morning and he basically made a joke of their tests. he blew it out of the water...the only way nathan does things. he took a total of 3 walks today. he's speaking very well, but doesn't too often because it hurts his head. he's also asking us to be quiet a lot.

we met with doc thompson to go over the post surgery mri results this morning. he was THRILLED with the results. he is such a great doctor. i can't say enough good things about him. when he swung by to round he was just in street clothes with his son.

oh! and before i forget to add it.. heres the mri (the dark spot shows the hole where the tumor was):

the other great news from doc thompson is that he thinks nathan should be able to discharge tomorrow. he said  "hospitals are for sick people." i love that guy. soooo... elizabeth and i were laughing tonight that we had longer hospital stays with uncomplicated births than nathan has with brain surgery. my brother is so inspiring on so many levels.

i am so excited that nathan will get to see jack for fathers day since jack isn't allowed in his room right now. so pumped nathan is up, walking, talking, drinking, eating... you name it! it's such an answer to prayer. God is so good. thank you all for continuing to check on nathan and for lifting him up in prayer. more updates tomorrow!

peace and love,
hannah
