Wednesday, July 5
Yesterday was more of the same. Resting, eating, rehab, a visit by drs. and nurses, chatting with the other patients. It is a bit of an emotional roller coaster. When I’m feeling physically well, Im on top of the world, then at other times not feeling so good. There are the expected headaches of course, but nothing too bad. They are more annoying than painful. At least I had a fabulous sleep last night, so I am in the right frame of mind to attack today with gusto.
My feet went cold again yesterday which meant the pain came back. But by the time Shung Way had finished, they were back to being toasty warm and the pain was gone. I’d like to bring Shung Way home with me. I have more stem cells this afternoon, given by way of an I/V. The dr. was saying that that generally gives an immediate improvement in circulation for 5 days. Hopefully in time the stem cells will grow so the good circulation is permanent. As I keep saying, time will tell.
There is a contingent of Eastern European families here having their children with Cerebral Palsy treated. Some from Hungary, Croatia, Romania. It is a joy having the kids around and hearing their laughter and playing in the halls. Kind of keeps me feeling grounded with reality. I admire both the children and their parents as the treatment isnt exactly a holiday. I pray that they have improvement.
