So much has happened since we last posted. Beth has been gone to a conference and hasn't had time to update. So... I slide around like nobody's business. If Beth isn't careful and leaves the door open to carry in groceries I will slip outside and down the steps in 2 seconds flat. hahahaha
Beth gives me a massage a few times a day and works my legs. I can almost roll all the way over on my back by myself now. When I go to drink my water my back end comes up off the floor about 1-2 inches and I'm trying to stand but just don't have the strength yet. Today when I snuck outside I almost stood up. I was on my back knuckles stretching as far as I could and then decided to lie down on the grass in the sunshine.
Beth and Jay have raised about 1/4 of the cost of my wheels and my wheels got here last week so I've been out for a spin a few times. I can go down hill pretty well but have trouble getting back up so I need a little help.
I need to get back to the chiropractor and we'll be making that call this week. I'm still on my steroid every other day and have a few more days of antibiotics left. I don't need my muscle relaxers anymore. WooHoo!
Day by day I think I can do a little more and am determined to walk again. I've found my voice again and happily protect our house and my people from those crazy people that feel the need to walk by. LOL I just figure I 'll let them know I'm still here.
