So far I have had a pretty normal day. Brunch at Portage Bay Cafe on Roosevelt followed by a visit from the home health Physical Therapist.
The PT and I went through all the drugs I was taking which involved her quizzing me on what each drug was for and why I was taking them, etc. We then went around the house so she could make sure I was comfortable doing what I needed to do. She encouraged me to have someone stand by more often for a while. Like when I take a shower or use the stairs. She also figuratively slapped my hand for occasionally taking a full step going upstairs instead of the same leg up. She encouraged me to do my exercises 3 times a day. Or if that was too boring pick a couple one hour and a couple more the next then cycle through them all. Next person will spend more time on actual exercise and not paperwork. For the next two weeks we have home PT scheduled 3 times a week.
Talk about being spoiled with the home PT. :-)
