good morning, yep graduation day! the nurses hummed the graduation hymn while i walked down the hallway this morning on my way to breakfast. i askws them to do the wedding march too so i could practice. :)
the rehab hospital has provided me some tools such as a cane and an ankle brace for when i leave.
but any other tools such as a cutting board for cooking for example vary per person. so they provided me a catalog with these items if i wanted to pursue shopping for myself. yipee the world of online shopping here i come~!!
its almost 10am now. i have my final OT at 11am. michael should be here by noon or so. then i will be on my way home.
yes typing is getting better and easier. no, not using my left hand yet. still a little early, but with my strong will and determination, it will happen some day. it is too difficult right now on a notebok laptop which is smaller than a regular laptop.
thank you again to everyone for your continued prayers, cards, emails, visitors, care packages and support. honestly, every bit of it helped me keep my spirits up and gave me the strength for the next day.
as i look around the room at my attempt to packing my things, i have obviously been here long enough. i've got 2 stuffed bags of clothes, cards galore, 4 balloons, numerous vases from all the flowers, boxes from all the carepackages, 3 pairs of shoes (such a girl), 1 laptop, 1 cell phone and charger, 2 firemen calendars, 1 big hersheys kiss that was a gift from one of my OT therapists today, and countless teddy bears. that does not begin to describe what has already been taken to the house as of last weekend for my overnight trip! as one nurse Maggie described my room, "it looks like a guy's dorm room in here, what a mess!" well, that is because i had a guy here everynight who loves me very much and has been the best support ever, and that i am very lucky, fortunate and blessed to be marrying in july, but didn't want to try his housekeeping skills in my room. l0oks like my occupational therapy will be tested at home with laundry, dishes and cleaning!
thank you again, love and blessings to all,
Karen aka Skippy
