Wow! Cam just sails through the work when he's not in pain! He finally consented to take some motrin before his exercises, and it worked! He did rowing, rickshaw with 60 lbs., laid down and fell asleep while his therapists and I went over the bathroom setup to see if it would be possible to do without tearing the house down. They measured in the "practice" bathroom, and we think it will work out fine! If we need something else in a month or two, then we can take care of it. Nothing seemed to be working out for our changing everything. One contractor came and gave us a bid for $17,500. That was with the $ 2500 compassionate discount. That's a little out of my budget this week.
Cam practiced his wheelies, and got so he could go over a bump without hitting the training bars in the back. He got a new chair to use that has no armrests, but it's really low, and he HAS to use the slider board at this point in time. The wheel gets in the way when he tries to get in and out of bed. He does ok til he gets tired, then needs help. He learned how to open an hydraulic door and get into a room, then out of it. He did it twice upon learning. Got into our truck, and out if it, too!
Had some wonderful people over for visits! Jill, Paul, Bill, Holly and kids. I'm sure I am missing someone. Please forgive me!
Jill, thank you for your generous donation. Jessica and Mike, thank you for your donations to our yard sale. We appreciate your loving kindness! Thank you all, again, for all your faith and prayers.
