I had my physical therapy appt today. I had fallen 3 times since I saw her last. Praise God I did not get hurt seriously. I basically have no nerve function in my right leg. It just flops. I have to pull it up into bed, on couch whatever. I have been really faithful on my exercises. My foot and ankle are a little stronger. If there is no significant improvement by next week will get a nerve stimulator to try and zap the muscles into functioning more. If I keep falling they als will look at a hinged splint to kep my knee from collasping and causing me to fall. Guess the damageis all the rsult of the shingles I had. I am using a 4 wheel walker to get aroung now. I never thought I would be using one at this age. My hubby never thought he would have to be a care taker either. I rec my buss access pass which is the handicap bus giving me door to door service. I feel like I have some independence now. But...with my freq falling I am just a little hesitant to use it by myself. Overall today has been a good day. Sore and bruised from kissing the floor so much but my spirits are good. Will share a quote I found in my Bible today.
"So often the Lord wraps up the gift of his grace in the form of another person who will lend a hand, give you a hand, or hold your hand just when you need it." Matt Anderson.
