Hello Friends,
I've been going to my new program, “Fighting Back” for three weeks now, and I've been really enjoying it. It's all physical work, on balance, walking, and stretching. My energy level has improved, and been fine throughout.
I also got approved by the insurance company for 12 more weeks at Bryn Mawr Rehab for therapy. They gave me this because of my updated goals, which are to learn to use an electric wheelchair. I feel very negative about this, as I've said before, and this is because of the image it projects to people. My therapists have said that it will just be a temporary thing to gain more independence while my walking improves, but that doesn't change how I feel.
On a lighter note, my 21st birthday is quickly approaching. I will be spending that time down on Hilton Head Island, SC, with my parents, and my aunt and uncle. I expect that this will be lots of fun.
My sister, Rose, is touring with her circus troupe across the country. Go see her if you have a chance.
She has been in Milwaukee, Chicago, New York and Detroit so far.
Josh
By the way, I'm not as much of a dork as the picture makes me look.
ReplyDeleteOr nearly as horrifying.
