Jen and Nichole OT students
Yesterday was a great day! Interesting cuz I don' have that many great days anymore. Boy
that sounds pretty negative but it's kind of true. I should
take some responsibility and underlined the fact it is my
responsibility to/make sure I have a good life.
Yesterday was cold, very
cold but I was going out anyway because I have a occupational
therapy appointment at 10 o'clock over at TOSH. I have to confess I
was a little bit intimidated because I am having to use the 201 go
over to the hospital. And of course the 201 runs on one hour
headways– – actually that is not altogether true because from
early on to about 930 am the 201 runs actually one half hour
headways. I'm not waiting nearly as long even if the temperature is
in the teens I can endure the chill and as it turned out, I only
waited about five minutes before the 201 arrived.
Even though the day was
cold the sky was clear and the sun on my face made me warm and
hopeful. I got to TOSH with bout 30 minutes to spare. I thought about
getting b and coffee and hanging out in the little restaurant on the
grounds but I did not want to have to hassle the time. It turned out
I had some paper work to do anyway. I liked being there back int the
Rehab/OT setting. I like to be doing something something that was
beneficial to me. Soon, Kasey came to fetch me back to the therapy
area. I was pleased to see Kasey and even more so when he introduced
to his occupational therapist students. I have found students always
fun especially in the medical/rehabilitation settings. I have not had
any therapy for months, not since my insurance run out and Kasey had
to collect a lot more information. I was impressed how much of this
information he allowed his students to collect. I was also impressed
at how much I had gained far as range of motion of my arms. I don't
know how accurate these measurements were begin with, I actually do
not remember Casey measuring the last go round but I seemed to have
progressed which made me feel good.
We did not to much therapy
per se but explored options for making my apartment more accessible
wwhich may me totally excited. Kasey and I seem share to share a
common vision for my living space. There seems there might be some
issues as far as authorization for home evaluation might be concerned
that we're trying to put together some sort of modality which might
muster. Kasey even suggested that should we not be able to get the
evaluation covered by insuranc Kasey come on his own time. I think
we should be able to get the project covered. This could really be
great project maybe one last great projects of my days. It would
take/could take a lot of work on my part , but what else do I have
to do? I wouldlike to think Marion ( the CEO/Boss) of this outfit
will be open minded as will as the other board members.
I enjoyed my rehab hour, I came away with great hope. I was a little disappointed that
we didn't set up next appointment I guess that will come. It was
just great to have a good day out.
