Mason is going home!!!

Mason got discharged today! His wound care this morning went really well, and they only bandaged his lower right leg and his left ankle; the rest they left open to air. His IV was discontinued and he has a prescription for oral pain medication. I am so excited to have him home! It will be nice to be together at home instead of back and forth from the hospital. He will stay downstairs on the fold-out couch and can use crutches to get around. He will go to the outpatient burn center at Brackenridge on Sunday and probably every few days after that. Mom will do his dressing changes and help with his mobility. I hope I can help too.

Praise God for his quick recovery and that he can go home today. Thank you all so much for your prayers.

Love,
Heidi

Praise God! Cassia and DJ are jumping up and down with excitement and I'm in tears. We've all prayed together and it's great to giggle now with this wonderful news. May the Lord continue His good work in Mason's recovery!
