Tyler was admitted to HealthSouth Thursday afternoon after a long drive from Phoenix. Dr. Larson examined him and determined that Tyler could not wiggle his left toes. Concerned that Ty may have something going on, he sent him to TMC emergency room for another CT Scan. After hours of waiting and poking by the ER team, the CT Scan was completed and did not indicate further bruising or bleeding. Back to HealthSouth he went to lay down in bed and get some very needed rest.
Tyler started his rehabilitation on Friday. He was evaluated by the speech therapist who recommended that Tyler be put into theraputic dining. A therapist is present at all meals to watch and evaluate eating and swallowing.
Ty is having some severe headaches due to his body absorbing the blood clots in his brain. The nurse indicated the headaches could continue on for several weeks. Ty is spending a lot of time sleeping which has all of us concerned. We all need to be patient and let Tyler's body heal. I think we forget that it has been less than a week since his accident. To his family and friends it seems like weeks!!
