I slept most of the day after the 5th spinal stem cell treatment. I woke up achy and did not feel well all day. So far we have not seen any more improvements. However, I know in all honesty we must give this time.

Sunday arrives and I am feeling much better. I wanted to take a trip outside on to the street in my wheelchair. Something I haven’t done yet……just to see the real China. We decided to go to the grocery and similar store like a Walmart. They are in one building with rolling ramps connecting (no stairs). On the street it is amazing that you can go from the 16th century to the 20th in the blink of an eye. The people are still using rickshaws some are bike peddled and some are electric skooter driven. The people here use more skooters than cars. We had a delightful day doing some shopping and eating out……..and would you believe I am feeling much better. My outlook remains very positive.

This is the day I leave and I am ready for the USA. The entire staff surrounds my bed to check on me and give me their farewells. Much of the staff gave us a wonderful send off following us in the elevator and out to our van which will take us to Shangahi. I am told by Dr. Ma that walking is in my future………praise the Lord. I must do therapy and some hard work. He wants me to find a chinese acupuncturist in my home area. We have already started to look. He says I must keep up the format they were using…….to get full results. He also tells me the full impact of the stem cells will be 2 months to 1 year……I am pleased. I am much better off than when I arrived in China that is for sure.

After a very long flight I am at home in Apollo, Pennsylvania and feeling fine. We have to date found a chinese acupuncturist. Dr. Martin was kind enough to list the kind of massage and kung fu acupuncture he specifically used on me. I am smiling because I will now be able to use the same chinese techniques in the USA. I remain positive and look ahead to brighter tommorrows.
