There’s always an air of excitement when it is time for me to return to Toledo to either see Bev or Dr. Grubb.  I think it’s because it took so long for me to get into them, knowing that they are two of the best Dysautonomia experts in the world.  Call it hope, call it an understanding, call it an appreciation for doctors who care and “get it”…call it what you will, but it never seems like a chore to travel to Toledo to see these two incredible doctors and people. 

Dear friends, family, supporters, and fellow zebras,

Finally.

After months, and days, and hours, and hours…and more hours of planning, we are finally ready to launch ticket sales for our 2nd Annual, “An Evening with Chris Trapper to Benefit Invisible Illness Research.”

Happy February, friends!

1.  Medical Stuff:

• 2 Days of Home Rehab.  I should have worked another day in there.
• My OMM doctor had to cancel my Tuesday appointment due to sickness.  I am rescheduled for later in February.  Right now, my thoracic is in major need of some gentle manipulative medicine.  While I wait, I will rely on heat, strengthening, foam rollers, and my physical therapist.

This past week has been one of the craziest, most exhausting, wonderful weeks I have had in a long time.  I stepped out of my comfort zone a LOT this week.  As I sit here and type

1. Medical Stuff:

• 1 Day of PT.  I asked Katie to kick my butt and she delivered.  Sometimes I am not sure if the Reformer is a beautiful thing or an evil thing. The jury is still out.
• 2 Days of Home Rehab.  I’m happy to report that I did a much better job this week staying on top of doing my cardio and strengthening.  On to next week.
• No doctor’s appointments!

2.  Last Saturday,
