A little R&R - Weekend Pass!

Aidan and big brother Zack getting comfy for bed.

Aidan taking a stroll on a beautiful Autumn day. 
Aidan went home for the first time since September 8th!  He had a weekend pass that allowed him to go home on Saturday and Sunday, but had to return to sleep at the hospital for the night.  He is not allowed, by terms of insurance to stay out overnight.  The insurance company feels that if he is well enough to sleep home then he is well enough to be discharged.  Of course Mom and Dad know that is still a little while away.  So, the whole family took advantage of Aidan being home.  He had lots of visitors, played with his brother and a couple of play dates.  He carved pumpkins, played with his dog Casey (who he missed dearly) and just enjoyed being home.  Imagine being away for 7 weeks?  He started to ask what his room looked like and if he had fish.  He was also worried the dog wouldn't remember him.  The homecoming was just in time. 

He is hard at work again at the hospital, the picture above is from today.  And as of today, he is no longer on any medication!  The last of the meds was to ease the stimulation of his nerves re-attaching. 

Aidan is ready for Halloween, he is keeping his costume a secret.... the big reveal is the weekend.  Stay tuned!
