Ball tossing

19 Sep

Tossing the ball last Saturday. It’s harder to stay sitting while doing this, which is the point of the exercise.

Just what Kristy said.  Thinking of you often, and hoping for good news.

Anything I can do over here?

Hi Stewart!

So happy to see the great photos and read the updates that Ceara is making.  Your hair looks great!  I hope you are better able to sleep in your new room.  Sleep is so important for healing.  Carolyn is coming up to see you.  I wish it could have been me, but they don’t let me out of here!  All the best.

Hard work : sitting on the floor isn’t as easy as it might seem. This video might give you an idea of the effort required.

FES bike

16 Sep

In this video, I am riding the FES bike. Functional electrical stimulation to my quadriceps, hamstrings, and gluteus muscles allows me to be pushing the pedals, ever so weakly at the moment, but it’s a start!

None of this would be possible without the enormous generosity of my friends. I am deeply indebted to you!

Sitting

After the exercise in this video, I sat up by myself on the floor for 20 minutes : a new record! After that, my stomach felt totally worked out.
