Rehabilitation begins...

Today I embark on another leg of this journey: physical therapy. I'm just now capable of mostly standing up-right. I still get very sore & stiff by the end of the day, but I'm obviously getting better.

I'm hoping to find some relief from the 'just-hit-my-funny-bone' sensations that plague both my arms. The Dr at MDA recommended a test to check for nerve damage (to see how extensive) as well as desensitization, exercises, and other rehabilitation as necessary. I just pray that it helps.

I just had to have my mom buzz my hair because it was falling out so badly.

I even have a fashionable belt to hold up my drains.
