Today, we had a very good day. Busy, as usual for Friday, and David was having some shoulder pain in the morning, but it ended on a high. First, we went to Speech Therapy, where we were subjected to listening to another caregivers ideas about christianity and government. You know, how god handed down the constitution, and how christians were persecuted because they weren’t allowed to inflict their beliefs on others. Don’t get me started. She wasn’t talking to us, but made sure she was loud enough for everyone in the waiting room could hear. Oh, brother. She did have one attentive listener though.
Well, then we had a good speech therapy session, where Karen talked about some crazy project for people to be selected to colonize Mars. I told her there was a lady in the waiting room who I was sure would love to go! We then went to Occupational Therapy with Maneshka, and she worked on David’s sore shoulder a bit. Then, a nice stroll home, and picked up pizza for David, and I had some spinach. Diet is going well.
Then, in the afternoon, we went to Physical Therapy, and Caroline did some work with David that was pretty impressive. Alright, it was very impressive, and very exciting. David walked without the cane! Yes, Caroline needed to be there to make sure he didn’t fall, but he really didn’t falter. We also walked around the apartment, and by we I mean David did. I was only there for moral support. Here is proof:
Anyway, it was all very exciting, and great progress. Then home, and we had a visit from Parker and his friend Chris. We had some dinner, some TV (loved the Project Runway Season 11 Reunion) and blog, Garrison and bed.
Bravo David! You are amazing! So happy you are making such progress. You will write a book about all this one day.
