Seeing Dr. McLean
My Tuesday morning began at 5:00 a.m. by making my bed. After doing so, I then began to do the stretches to help in my last stroke recovery. At 5:26 I then began to work my upper body by doing my weight exercises. At 5:25 I then started in with my back stretches. Once I had completed my workout in my apartment, I then made my way to the gym to do some cycling for twenty minutes. I then did some more stretching and weight exercises in the gym before returning to my apartment at 6:15. Once I had some fruit and drank my hot cocoa, I then toasted half an english muffin to go along with my bowl of cereal. Once I had finished eating, I then picked up the kitchen. At 6:45 I then brushed my teeth and shaved. At 7:00 I then took a shower. Once I was ready for my day ahead, I then put in my eye and nose drops before using my inhaler. I then watched a Hall Mark movie while waiting to go to the lobby at 8:00. My ride soon arrived at 8:15 getting me to WestSide at 8:30. I had sat in the lobby while waiting to meet with Priyadarshi for my counseling session. Once we had finished talking about things, I then went to Tobie’s office for my recreational therapy session at 10:00. Today Tobie had me look over the aisle list from Shaw’s that John had given to her. She and I then make a list of the things that I would buy, so that I could simplify my shopping when I am there. We then talked about the cue cards we had made to help me find my way to certain area in Schooner Estates. At 11:00 I then went to the nurses station so as to meet with Cec for my nursing session. Cec first took my blood pressure 116 over 68. We then called Hanaford in auburn to order some medication. We then transferred all my medications to the hanaford in Auburn. If I do not hear from them in two days Cec told me give them a call. At 12:00 I then went to the Lobby so as to meet the United Wheelchair driver who would be taking back to Schooner Estates. I had arrived at Schooner Estates at 12:15, just enough time to watch the weather report. I then soon made my way to the Camden Dining Room to eat lunch. On my way back to my apartment I had paid Sue at the front desk to go to the fund raiser night BBQ. While eating Ruth approached me and wanted to know if I would like to play cribbage with her Thursday, I replied, “yes.” Once I had returned to my apartment I had brushed my teeth before heading back to the lobby. Schooner Estates then took me to my knew Chiropractor appointment. Upon my arrival To Dr. McLean’s office I had to fill out some paper work before seeing the doctor. My blood pressure was 114 over 81. The nurse then took exray’s of my back by rolling something on it. Once she had done that the doctor did his thing. He then gave me a packetwith a heating pad and ice pack to ice my back with. I then called my transportation. Upon my arrival back to Schooner, I had made my self a salad. I then took a shower before eating it. I then had my dinner before pulling up my blog at 5:50 and typing of my day.
