Walking is Good Medicine

After a week filled with ups and downs following his discharge from the hospital, Jonathan is beginning to adjust to life at home.

Jonathan’s doctor recommended that he remain active by moving around and walking. Jonathan really enjoys walking and so has started going on long walks. He’s found that walking is a great way to ease the tightness in his left calf.

This weekend he walked a mile both on Saturday and on Sunday. Thankfully the weather cooperated and he had lovely weather both days.

This afternoon, James and I joined Jonathan on his afternoon constitutional. Hooray for walking buddies!

While he still continues to struggle with catheter management, Jonathan’s bladder is feeling much better now that he’s taking Oxybutynin. So that’s good news as well.

Let’s hope things continue to improve this week as well!

Jonathan, Katy & James
