Adjusting With Cast
Today, 30th January 2025, is the second day after removal of his metal fixtures and cast application.
I noticed him complaining of pain in his head and neck area. The doctors advised to encourage him stay active and move his affected muscles.
Because he couldn’t move his neck muscles for 7 weeks, his neck muscles became very weak. Even moving left and right is painful and not comfortable.
So at the moment, the activities we do with him on the bed are:
Rotating his head left and right
Rotating his body left and right
Sitting position with supporting his head and neck
Finally, while I was praying Isha’a, this idea crossed my mind: Create an activity for him on the ground. It could be a colorful mat with toys. So he can rotate his body, lift up his head and move around.
It is interesting to bounce back. There is when you go down to earth and humbly accept the situation as it is and tune with it.
