the PT's are stepping up the therapy. spence has been put thru quite the workouts the past few days. he thought it was for his own good but he recently found out his primary therapist is a Yankee's fan. All of her torture has been pay back for the SOX world series wins.
The Spaulding unit has been showering him with gifts in anticipation of his moving back to MGH for surgery on Friday. Lets see he got a raised toilet seat, a shower chair with back, a shiny new cane, and a new seat for his wheelchair. LOL!!!
The real scoop is he is leaving Spaulding on friday to go to MGH for the surgery to put his bone flap back in. One less thing for spence to obsess about. after his recovery from that and all continues as planned he would be released to home where he would continue his therapy on an outpatient basis. needless to say a big week and weekend for him.
Spence does wish to offer his congratulations to the VFW Post 611 senior hockey league team for their championship win on monday night. Way to go guys!

Hey there, Spence. Glad you are getting rewarded for all of your hard work ;-) You had better get that PT to rout for the SOX, although the harder the workouts the faster the recovery, so maybe you shouldn't.

love and hugs to all the Nutts,
Nance

New toilet seat? It's amazing how this blog can go four days without updating and still have TMI. Good thing you got the Yankee fan in April, its always their best month. If you got her in October she'd just sit on the bed staring blankly ahead. (again, sorry Shannon.) Can you sign your bone flap before its put in? I think it would be cool if after you die 90 years from now and the do an autopsy and their left wondering how you signed your skull

Good luck with the surgery. As always I miss you in class. Hopefully once you get home we can do some programming and work together via the Internet. You are in my thoughts and prayers. Hurry home (who would have thought Taunton would be such a highly anticipated place :)
Love ya,

Hey, Spence! I've been out of town in South Carolina the past week, and it looks like you're doing great!! Pretty soon you can change your sign to "Bone flap: right side". :) Good luck with your surgery on Friday. Hopefully the museum will release your bone flap back to Dr. Chen!
Love,
Missy :)
