Andy's New Shoes!

Today started out a little rough for Andy - he had bouts of vomiting over night and again this morning. He was also having a lot of head pain. The doctor ordered a CT scan to make sure there wasn't a problem. The results of the CT scan were fine. Finally, the vomiting stopped and the head pain subsided and Andy began to feel better. This afternoon, Rachel went to the hospital to visit Eddie and Andy. For some background, ever since the day of the accident, Eddie has been unable to locate Andy's shoes, last seen in the ER. Andy had been wanting some shoes like his Daddy's, but they are very expensive for a little guy who goes through a pair of shoes VERY quickly. Well, Rachel decided to surprise Andy with a pair of them. When she gave them to Andy, he was THRILLED! She said he gave her multiple hugs! With Eddie's and the nurse's help, Andy put on his socks and his new shoes! He proceeded to get out of bed and walked down the hall! Better yet...Andy is going to be released tomorrow morning to Methodist Hospital Pediatric Inpatient Rehab. And, actually, he doesn't appear to even need very much rehab; but who would have thought this would be happening after just 17 days?! Praise God!
