As of late, I was able to accomplish many tasks. 1)I was able to work on my core again, which is a lot of work! Especially if you haven't done much for it. 2) I walked some more with only two people holding my hand. 3) I "played" tug-o-war with another patient and friend in pt. He is bigger then me and granted he had to stand, I was seated but I won a few times, as well as my strength is certainly there, boy was I tired after though! This is to let you all know, I'm getting better, additionally this is hitting me now, but I really have a lot more ahead of me. Not having a pity party rather knowing it's not going to be easy. I will strive for improvement more and more no matter how long it takes.
For anyone experiencing things like this,never give up! Sometimes it may seem very difficult but carry on it will pay off in the end.
Meanwhile I will be attached to the Warrior Transition Unit (WTU), this means I will be able to see different docs and my civilian docs, a whole new medical team, it's a lot to take in but we are doing everything step by step and I will benefit from it in the long run. According to my parents, I take baby steps, not always easy but the best way to get "there".
For all those who have my back, please keep supporting my efforts you are vital for me and my recovery.
And last but least, GO PACKERS! Looking forward to a good game and good halftime stuff - enjoy your superbowl Sunday.
More next week everyone and God speed!
