Today was my 1st time going to physical therapy post stroke.
I feel so weak.
My shoulders are so tight.
I'm so fearful of my neck.
It's so stiff.
I can't turn my neck.
I have to turn my entire body.
Today my PT timed me doing a peg picking up 'game'.
I had tears in my eyes.
It was so hard.
I was so slow.
My right hand doesn't respond like it used to.
After the message my PT brought in a maroon swivel chair with arms on it so I could move around more easily.
There was nothing fancy about the chair.
I fell in LOVE instantly with that chair!!
I had freedom.
I could turn and watch him so easily.
I could move and turn.
I could push myself around the room.
I had regained some independence and it was all from a maroon swivel chair.
I'm in LOVE with that chair and I'm not afraid to say it!!
