My Monday morning began at 10:00 a.m. I had gone strait into the main camp to eat my breakfast. After eating some fruit and drinking a cup. of peppermint tea, I then had called United Wheelchair to see what time that I would be picked up this afternoon for my P.T. assessment. The dispatcher had replied 2:30. Once off the phone, I then had a french toast for breakfast. At 10:42 I then returned to my camp to make my bed. After doing so, I then brushed my teeth. At 10:56 I then began to do my stretches. At 11:15 I then did some reading for twenty minutes before filling my empty pill containers. At 12:00 I then watched the news. At 12:30 I then took a shower and shaved so as to get ready for the afternoon. At 1:00 I then put in my eye and nose drops before taking in three puffs of my inhaler. I then watched a Hal Mark movie. while having a bite to eat. At 1:33 I then brushed my teeth. I then sat down to watch a Hal Mark Christmas in July movie while waiting for Calvin from United Wheelchair to arrive. 2:30 Calvin had arrived. I had arrived at WestSide Nero Rehab at 4:00. Elizabeth was there waiting for me to give me my P.T. evaluation. Once in the gym we went to work. She started by taking my blood pressure. 134 over 89. She then had me doing sit to stand. She then had me out in the hallway doing some walking. She then had me walk heel to toe. She then had me walking while looking side to side. Last but not least she had me walking looking up and down. She then she would talk it over with Dan the P.T.A. and Steven my case manager to set a schedule up to go in for P.T. twice per week. She then showed me some exercises to do. Touch arms down my legs and back up. Also a twist exercise. At 5:00 Calvin then took me home. Upon my arrival at 6:15 I had eaten my dinner before going into my camp to get comfortable. I then washed my face and brushed my teeth before pulling up my blog and typing of my day.
