January 24
Tomorrow will be my last full day of therapy as Friday afternoon I have my last stem cell IV and Saturday we are heading home. At this stage Saturday cannot come fast enough. We have made some really great friends here which I know we will stay in contact with, they have made our time in China almost fun.
I have not reached the point where I wanted to be by now but there have been improvements, which have made me pretty happy. I am now more independent when walking and I’m definately steadier on my feet. I did picture myself carrying my own luggage out of the hospital and running across the tarmac at home to meet my boys. This is not going to happen and I’m getting vibes that perhaps I’m a little impatient and maybe these goals were unrealistic. I will keep working towards these kinds of goals at home.
If my determination, the Therapists support, the special chinese potions, the nurses care and Sunny’s crews support was enough I would make the next Australian Olympic Team. These people mentioned above have also laughed politely at Garry’s jokes, making him feel better too.
Anyway another full day of therapy tomorrow and I will give it everything I have.
