I just got off the phone with Becky and Titus is free to go home. Thank you Lord!
And, I just got off the phone with Mom. Due to the surgery this week to correct the damage Dad did when he pulled his pins out, they had to re-attach the pin to a different bone. This is what is holding his pelvis together so the bones will heal. Dad had been in a back brace to also assist the fractures in his spine. But, since they have moved where the pin is located, they are not able to re-configure the back brace for dad.
Bottom Line is . . . Dad will have to stay flat on his back for the next 6 weeks. And more than likely, will be at a rehab center attached to Parkland (It may be in Zale-Lipshy, but I'm not certain yet.) Dad has been very awake, alert, and lucid and understands and agrees the best thing for him is to stay right there. While this isn't the news they were expecting to hear today, please pray for Mom and Dad while they make these decisions. 6 weeks can go by very slowly when you are flat on your back.

PTL!!!! I am so happy to hear Titus is coming home tonight!!! We have been praying for him every day. Cara (who is 3 years old) has been asking me questions everyday about Titus and wanting an update on how he is doing. When she prays at lunch she makes sure to include "ApaTitus" (not sure why she says his name like that) in her prayer asking for healing.
Praise God!!!!! There is no greater joy than to walk in the door of your own house after spending time at the hospital! So thankful you all are home and back together under one roof!
Praying for speedy healing in all areas for Titus and sweet sleep for you and Becky!
