Josh’s ‘Hips don’t lie!’

September 28th, 2008

   Hey guys! great news!!  so I am laying in bed at night ready to sleep and I feel a strange tingling and warm sensation in my hips and legs well I found out I am able to now move my hip muscules on command!!  also if I concentrate I can move and contract my thigh muscules as well-without causing spasms!  This a great and wonderful improvement  and has boosted my spirts tremendously ( For the record this is the night after my 4th STC my 2nd Spinal Injection) I am skipping ahead a bit to get caught up to present day so you guys can get daily updates if possible on my progress I was also so tired this morning because I was so wired and happy about my new improvment I couldent sleep until like 5 am haha. Once again I thank each and every one of you for your prayers and positive thoughts

   This morning I awoke really sleepy and the lady who cleans the rooms came in and was speaking in chinese to my Father about something, well apperently she cleans the rooms generally after therapy ( usually when I am too tired and we clean up the room ourselves…. sorta ) well this time she was hell-bent on cleaning the room! we were confused at first to why she was so head-strong on cleaning. Well actions speak louder than words and she did the awsome ‘finger-on-table-pick-up-and-show-dust’ action and we all bursted out laughing. Dad even made pig noises indicating that we were messy lol.  She is a really nice person and we are going to try to get her a gift when we leave, speaking of, if all goes well we will be leaving on the 16th of October (guesstimating from the schedule they have us on)  Well we might have plans tonight seeing as this coming week we will have some time off of therapy aside from the treatments of course, It’s supposed to be because of a holiday or something I will look more into it later so I will keep you guys posted!
