It hurts.
Every time I am moved to my back, my tummy, my side, my bed, my wheelchair and the car, I cry. I have to be moved, to prevent pressure sores and so I can be fed and washed and dressed and put into my wheelchair or the car.
But it hurts.
Every time.
I can’t use my words. I can only cry.
It’s day 11 of 51. We know it gets easier, but right now, it’s exhausting.
Dexter's pain breaks our hearts and all we can do is hold his hands and tell him we're here.
The realities of our life.
(The video is hard to watch, but this is Dexter's pain, in all it's raw honesty. He had been given strong pain medication before we moved him.)

His pain will get better.
We will learn to carry him more easily.
It will just take time.
For now, everything is so hard.
