We need more power, Scotty!

This afternoon we had the family conference with the therapists, essentially a report card on how things are going. My elbow is definitely holding me back from a couple of important tasks, like fall recovery, but I still need to be stronger as well and that will help. Looks like I'll have to ramp up on the weights at the gym starting tomorrow.

My release date depends a lot on when my elbow surgery happens and how well I recover from that, but we're hoping for sometime around mid-June if all goes well. As of today I've done everything I need to be able to do at least once (aside from fall recovery!) so it's a matter of getting stronger and practice, practice and more practice.
