Great to read about your progress.

Each day little closer back to normal is a fantastic result until now.

 

But please don‘t forget, there may be day‘s they didn‘t be that successfully, thats normal and a part of Life.

Ups and downs be normally like a hike in the Mountains, we be humans and no Robots,

that is a reason we be not every day in same constitution.

 

Each little Progress brings you closer to normal.

Sent some Prayers with stenght and passion.

Great to hear from you and your continued progress. Prayers for a full recovery.  Tell you Physical Therapist that some wrench motion exercises would be very motivating.

Been a couple of weeks since my last update so I figured it was time to fill you in on the progress.

The neuropathy (numbness) on the left side from my shoulder to my hip hasn't gone away and I won't be able to see a neurologist until November. It isn't painful, hasn't interfered with the physical therapy too much and my doctor said it is not too unusual following a stroke.

They told me that though wrenching isn't usually prescribed for stroke recovery I might want to add it to my  at home exercises.       :handgestures-thumbupright:

I have PT three days a week and each week I am able to walk further with the walker and have begun releasing both hands from the walker while standing. So far I can only do that for about five seconds at a time. I am able to release one hand while standing for two minutes, long enough to place my hand over my heart for the singing of our National Anthem.

I am so grateful for the prayers and words of encouragement everyone has expressed. Each time I see a bit of progress it makes me that much more determined keep on going back to PT.

Though I can't get out in the shop yet Red Square affords me the opportunity to remain involved with :wh: and that means a lot to me. Big Show is only a few months away, gives me a target to aim for, hope to see all of you there.

I’ve been in the booth the last couple weeks recording Rylee’s football team for film review days.  Last night, I had the honor to stand on our team’s side for the first time.  Being high in the stands, I was glad to see the veterans in their formation and everyone else paying their respects with their hands over their hearts.  I’m thankful for those who take that with such respect, gratitude and honor.  Thank you Mr. a Richard, for being a veteran, for being strong and confident in your recovery!
