Running in the halls and outside during P.T.
I began my Monday morning at 6:00 a.m. by going out into the kitchen t eat blueberry pancakes for breakfast. After doing so, I then returned to my bedroom to take my shower thus getting ready for the day. Once I had cleaned my bathroom, I grabbed my things and went to the door to wait for United Wheelchair to arrive. Upon my arrival to Westside for 9:00 a.m. I had gone to the kitchen to put my lunch in the refrigerator before making my way over to the gym. It is a hop skip and a jump from the kitchen to the gym because they are both on the lower level. Today Lydia first had me walking on the treadmill for ten minutes, I had gone one-half mile. She then took me outside to try running but it seemed to be too hot so we went back inside to jog in the halls at Westside. When it was all said and done I had run 1160 feet total inside and out. Then one thing she had pointed out to me while working on my running is the word control which I do remember them speaking allot about at d'youville. Lydia wanted me to focuss on being able to come to a stop at the end of the hall after my jaunt. On command sort of speak. I did 12 runs back and fourth in hall before ending the exercise. Lydia then commented on how well I did with the exercises, but the only thing standing in my way was my breathing after all that exercise. I can't seem to control it getting it back down to where it is normal. We then went back into the gym to do some wall squats. I had done ten of them with a five second hold each one. I then went in the parallel bars to do six inch step ups without hanging on. I then did some tandem stepping. At 11:00 I then went to the conference room for laughter therapy. Today Mat, Michelle, Paul, Silver and I Practiced many forms of laughter with Deb and Flourina. At 12:00 I then went to the dinning area to eat my lunch before going home. I use to have speech at 12:30, but I have met my goals and no longer need speech therapy for now. United then took me home. I had arrived home at 1:30. Upon doing so, I had gone straight to bed. I had called for my blood work results. I then lied down to rest. I had slept from 3:00-5:00 before getting up to take my shower. I then sat down to blog before eating dinner.
