Barb, pt, was here and she knew exactly what I wanted to do, walk out in the hall with no assistance! I did that and a few exercises. While doing the exercises she was impressed that I remember all of them :)! Oh first she asked when the nurse was coming again, I said I donno and they haven't been in a few days, I think my dressing is supposed to be changed daily! Barb looked at it then asked if I had anything to cover the incision. I had to think, if I did I'd put it in the medicine cabinet in the bathroom, she looked and thankfully I had some left from my previous surgeries! Barb changed my dressing, called the nursing place, gave me their land line #! The nurse is coming on Monday. I also asked for the number to the agency so when they no show I've someplace I can call to say wtf! She also said I did very well walking with no assistance and with the exercises! But you know I always believe I can do better and I said that to Barb! She said "give yourself some credit, do you know how many others with a condition like yours can't do what you do"? I realize that most survivors of a severe head injury couldn't live alone, keep up with everything I do. That's who I've always been though, always striving to do better :)! I remembered things I forgot on my peapod order and had to figure out how to add things to an order that has already checked out! I was able to get some frozen pizzas on this order which is coming tomorrow btw 5-6 pm.
Today I've had a great workout at the YMCA,Michaela was over,her boss came first to have me sign some papers then Michaela did her thing,and very well too!I did work on getting rid of that Trojan horse and it seems I'm successful in defeating a nasty virus once again :)!
