February has crept up on us, unbelievable how fast time flies when you are having "fun. The milestones are not as stupendous as they once were, but slowly, even I am noticing that there is an improvement in many things. Marisa left STRH and Ann was working with me. Frank became the supervising therapist and he quite calmly informed me that he was discharging me, I quite calmly, at first, told him no, I wasn't accepting that decision, that I wasn't ready to go it alone, without someone to supervise the exercising. This led to a big song and dance, with the result being that Jun became my supervising therapist and now the decision is in the hands of the insurance company. In the meantime, I let Marisa know all of this, and since she agreed I wasn't quite ready to do my own exercise, we are running into each other at Gold's gym and she is helping me with some machines and floor work. On my own there are about 3 machines that I can do without any help, combined with my DVD's at home, I can do somethings when she is not available. I need practice walking on grass and uneven pavements, so I need to text Jake to see if he can help me there. I am walking around the house without the cane, I am walking into stores with just the cane. I can walk fast when wearing my UFO's, I am more secure walking around with the cane outside and have gone to church with just it. I can also get out of the red therapy chair with one hand. The couch is still tricky, but definitely easier than it had been. I see signs of progess, which I had not seen before.
