leg raises duing p.t.

I began my Tuesday morning at 5:00 a.m. by getting up to do my stretching. At 5:20 I then preceded to do my leg exercises with weights. Once I had finished, I had made my way into the kitchen to have a bowl of hot cereal and toasted english muffin for my breakfast. At 5:45 I had returned to my bedroom to shower and get ready for my day ahead. Once I had done so, I then sat down to do my speech and breathing exercises, which seem to be helping, but it is such a slow process, like everything else I guess. At 6:45 I then gathered my things, thus bringing them to the door. At 7:00 I then put my daily schedule into my note pad so that I know what is going on for my theropy onc I arrvive at WestSide. I then watched the news while waiting for United to arrive. Upon my arrivel to WestSide this morning for 9:00 a.m. I had gone straight to the conference room for yoga group. Donald, David, Dennis and I Started the group with Michelle and Carol by doing sun salutation. Once we were all loosened up we then did the twist. We then each grabbed a mat and did some exercises on the floor. To wrap things up we then did the corps pose. this is a relaxation technique we do at the end of each yoga group. At 10:00 I then went downstairs to the gym for my p.t. session with Dan. Dan started the session by taking my blood pressure. 100 over 74. Dan then had me walking on the tredmill for nineteen minutes at 3.2 for speed. He then had me at 2.6 for one minute for a cool down. Once my walk was finished I had walked 1.054 miles. At 11:30 Dan had me put ankle weights on. He then had me doing leg raises as I sat on one of the Theropy beds. We then went out into the hall way to do some walking. At 11:00 I had met with my case manager Piper. Today she had me signing releases so as to give her permission to release information to my parents, sister, and my doctor. I then had a fifteen minute break before I met with Sally the nurse. During my nursing session I has gone over my speech strategies Carina wated me to do. We then talked about the headache on the right side of my head is worse with activity and how the blood vessel protrueds. At 12:00 I then had lunch. At 12:30 I then met with Deb.
