Almost at the End of the Roller Coaster Ride

This is a picture of Luke right after his halo was taken off. He's a bit groggy and confused, but in his moments of clarity, he was happy that the halo was off! He's doing great right now. He has no pain, his pinsites are healing quickly, and the relief we all feel is almost tangible. He has a hard plastic collar that he is wearing now, and the dr said he'll wear it for about 3 months. This is to keep his neck as stable as possible as the bones continue to fuse. We will take Luke back to the dr in 2 months to see how his neck is doing.

Today, we plan to make some pumpkin pie from a real pumpkin. If there is enough pumpkin left over, we will make a pumpkin cheesecake. Daddy will be very excited about this. He LOVES sweets!! Also,  Luke and I want to go buy some small hay bales, small pumkins, and some mums to decorate our front porch for fall. Around 2 this afternoon, our tiny town is having a homecoming parade which we plan to go to. All the kids should love that!
