Eight weeks on

September 18th, 2006

Unfortunately the feeling in my feet is starting to dull a bit. I put this down to the fact that I am not receiving the 2 or 3 hours of daily rehabilitation as I was in China. Still this has prompted me into action and I have found a GP at my local Sydney medical centre who also does acupuncture. She will give me weekly sessions that are bulk billed so will not cost me anything.

I am pleased to report that all the other improvements gained in China are still with me. Life is good. I regularly sleep a full night, no pain in my legs and feet, wonderful bladder control.

Slowly does it, but I’m getting stronger.

A few weeks ago I was presented as a Member of the Order of Australia by NSW Governor, Marie Bashir. My two children accompanied me to Government House. I was really chuffed to be recognised by the Australian government for my voluntary work with the Access Dinghy Foundation and Sailability. Below are a few photos of the afternoon.

    Sounds fantastic what you have achieved, nothing like perseverence and persistance, as well as all the other stuff like positive thinking and so forth, also really great about the award as well, what a surprise, looking forward to seeing you in November, Tree
