And the next day we would discover he couldn’t use his arms. It would take him over a year to recover and then need spinal fusion and decompression surgery because of this surgery. Both live saving. We are here in Orlando for the pain management program for a month. He’s done with week one. We are beyond proud of how he’s doing. He’s taken charge of his destiny with his pain. He is determined and fully committed to getting “better”. We walked around Disney Springs tonight after dinner. We have done it a couple times now. It’s his physical activity for the day. He’s been in a wheelchair for most times at Disney. Today, he walked. Last night he walked. Tomorrow when we go see Black Widow, he will walk. My emotions are all over the place with this but proud tops them all. Even with all the planning, all the stress of getting here and getting settled, the fucking insurance issues and the pain, so much pain. Relief is in the making and HE is doing it!!!!!!!! He is doing it. He has defied the odds more than once and now he’s taking control of his pain. Damn right he’s getting a good dinner out here and there and some fun along the way!! Cheers with Shirley Temples, chocolate milk and Coca-Cola tonight for Adler!!!!! Bold As Love, always!!! 🅰️🌈💙⚓
