Sleeping on the Job

4_2_a

Thursday is outing day, and today's trip was to the local Albertsons and then out for lunch. Only thing was, we didn't drive there, we wheeled. And it was a long way. Uphill. It was a great trip though, I bought some cookies at the grocery store, and we had a great Mexican lunch. And the trip home was downhill, luckily.

I was bushed after this morning, but it was straight back to therapy this afternoon. The first session was mat exercises, and in the break between sessions I ended up falling asleep for a few minutes on the mat. The last hour was sitting balance, one of the exercises that wears me out the most of course. Like I said a couple of days ago, just when I think they can't work me any harder...

  2. We don't know each other, but I've been following your blog daily since learning about your situation from one of your benefit auctions that I stumbled across. I just have to say that your spirit and strength shine through in every single post you make. Apparently, you really ARE the man! :) Thanks for sharing your journey with us, and keep up the great work -- your progress is remarkable!

  8. For a second there I thought this post was going to sound like those stories parents always tell...

    "I had to wheel myself to the store, uphill, both ways, while being chased by mountain lions!"

    Least you got cookies for your efforts. Nice job AT. :)
