To rehab or not to rehab. That seems to be the question.
Phil has continued to work on his respiratory therapy with vigor. He takes short walks around the hospital wing floor, flirting with the nurses (that's how he scores extra popsicles), and being the social butterfly that is Phil. For the last few days, he's been complaining about the pain in his left shoulder area. They took more X-Rays yesterday and confirmed the clavicle was broken in the accident. No apparent damage to the shoulder. Because of the nature of the break, the recommended treatment is to simply allow the bone to heal on its own.
He's definitely getting closer to being released. This morning, the doctor indicated that if he continues the respiratory progress, he could be released within the next few days. Released as in going home, not going to rehab.
You'd think someone just told a six year-old that he's going to Six Flags over Texas.
