So much attention has been spent on making sure I can stand without much support, I am exhausted I did not realize how much my abs are working. I am sore and tired, but moving along to be able to stand independently. In the meantime, I am still using a slide board at times to move myself since standing isn’t fully happening. I will continue to practice lifting my booty up and off the wheelchair seat. My arms are tired and fear is running high.
I wish I never lost so much strength. I kept telling the folks at the hospital that I was losing strength and needed to be evaluated for rehab or even just PT/OT, but they did not listen to me.
Today I was able to complete 10 minutes on the Nustep independently, which felt wonderful. Unfortunately I wasn’t able to stand and pivot to get on the NuStep independently. This needs to happen before I get home. The weekend is coming up, which means less therapy, but I am “owed” some therapy, so I am hoping that happens.
In other words- I am working hard at growing my audience online through Facebook, Instagram, and even Tik- Tok. I completed a few online courses to help me figure out the allorgrithms to grow my followers. If you see my accounts, please follow them- it would mean the world to me! I am thinking I finally got a hold of what I am doing with the various accounts.All of this is being done Independently!
I am also enjoying the Winter Olympics tonight is the opening ceremony and I am watching it carefully. It’s enjoyable and hopefully better than the Paris Summer Olympics.
I’ve managed to figure out how to charge my various devices, including my visible armband. Thank goodness for Amazon deliveries even here!
