P.T. Assessment with Amanda
I began my Tuesday morning at 4:30 a.m. by getting up to do my weight exercises for my arms and legs. Once I had finished I then began to stretch. At 5:30 I then took my shower before going out into the kitchen to eat a bowl of cereal and a toasted english muffin with jam on it for breakfast. I then went back to my bedroom to brush my and do my speech and breathing exercises. I then grabbed my duffle bag and my lunch and sat by the door to wait for my ride. Larry from United Wheelchair had arrived at 7:30. We then went to pick Donald up before leaving Farmington. We had arrived to WestSide at 9:00 a.m. I then made my way into the conference room with the other clients for yoga group with Michelle. Mat Dondald and I worked with Carol doing Yoga strenthening before ending with the with the corps pose. I then made my way down to the gym for my P.T. evaluation with Amanda. Amanda first had me running/Jogging on the tredmill. I did the best that I could but I have to say it is still hard to fire up my ankle so as to get my foot to go heel toe. Despite the flaws I did quite well. I had run a total of 1.032 miles. After my run/jog, Amanda then had me in the parallell bars using three pound weights doing leg raises ect. She then had me doing leg raises on the mat. I was some tired after this P.T. session and it showed. At 11:00 I then had my case management session with Piper. Together we spoke about certain things concerning my treatment at WestSide. At 1:00 I then went to the lobby to rest. At 11:30 I then had met with sally for my nursing sessiong. Sally had taken my blood pressure 118 over 72 we then spoke about upcoming medical appointments. I then went to the kitchen to eat my lunch. At 12:30 I then had my support session with Deb. Deb continued to help me with my Ipad. Showing me how to Use It as a daytimer, by putting in my weekly schedule from WestSide. At 1:00 United took me home. I had arrived home at 2:15 thus going straight to bed. I had slept until 4:45 before getting up to take my shower before dinner. Once I had finished with my dinner, I had gone to my bedroom to blog.
