Hello San Diego, and Happy Birthday!! You helped me pass out candy to trick or treaters when you were 5 days old! All of the neighborhood kids met you right away.
I'm doing well. I'm trying to walk more and more without the cane. I do tire easily, but expect improvement day by day. The aqua therapy starts Nov. 8. The prescription is for 1 to 3 times a week for 4 weeks to strengthen the left leg.
After that's done, depending on how things go, Dick and I could both re-up at the fitness place, or do the Senior Citizen thing in the pool at the Civic Center. We're also shopping for a recumbent stationary bike which was recommended by one of the Drs.
I have a sad feeling that we won't be going to the Michigan games any more this season. Dick is staying home with me again this coming weekend. There are only 2 home games left - Northwestern this coming Saturday, and Ball State the weekend after that. To be honest, I don't think I'll be ready to sit on bleachers for the Ball State game either. . Of course I'm very touched that he stays with me and I really appreciate it, but I feel bad, too, because these games are important to him and I hate to see him miss the opportunity. Makes me sorry to be the cause of it all, but I'm not depressed or anything because I'm happy to be making good progress.
I have been able to go grocery shopping a couple of times, visiting Mother, shopping for the bike, and cleaning my bedroom closet - so I'm not entirely useless. I've even fixed a couple of suppers. Dick is still driving me everywhere.
Dick is busy getting the yard ready for winter, doing some geocaching, plus he's still doing most of the cooking. Generally speaking all is well here.
