Returning To China
May 30th, 2008
My plans have been finalized and my Dad and I are returning to China in June 2008 for more stem cell injections. My parents and I are pleased enough with the results thus far that we believe more improvements with body movements and feeling are just on the horizon. When I left Hangzhou in October, Doctor Ma performed an Asia test using a feather and a blunt object like a small stick. The test is performed at many places on the body by rubbing a feather or small stick to determine if I had normal feeling. The doctors made a detailed chart of the body and wrote down where on the body I had feeling and if the feeling was normal. I can’t wait to see the results of their first test in June to show them what changes have been made.

Doing very well, thank you. It’s all about attitude, positive thinking, good health, staying healthy, and setting goals for oneself. With an SCI, life still goes on, but with a number of changes and adaptive assistance. Now at 6 years post, I have water skied, snow skiied, bunge jumped in my wheelchair, graduated from college, and drive a truck. Family support is critical.
