Ok, today during PT they put me in a manual chair that has been sized for me. I stayed in the manual chair for four hours. I started pushing it myself but soon got really tired and Mom or Grandpa helped. We have found out that carpet is not my friend. Transfers continue to be a challenge but I'm not sure I'm getting any better at it. The balance thing is really hard. I think I'm doing really good and I look down and Gina has my shorts and she is pulling me across the board, so I'm sure if I'm getting better or Gina is getting better. Either way therapy continues. Ok - so here is a visual for you - in order for me to put shorts on, I have to put my arm through one leg and lean over and put my foot though the leg hole, only one problem - the shorts didn't come off of my shoulder, now imagine what that looks like - yes a pretzel - I had to call in reinforcements but soon back on track. Therapy is a wonderful thing. I am now know as PRETZEL MAN. love to all - good night Justin ghost writer sharon
