1. Medical Stuff:

• 1 Day of PT. Needed the tough love.
• 2 Days of Home Rehab.
• I saw Larry on Friday for my monthly appointment to touch base and for cranial and other manipulative medicine. If my joints could talk, they would thank Larry every single time.

1. Medical Stuff:

• 1 Day of PT.
• 2 Days of Home Rehab
• No doctors and almost a nap each afternoon. That never happens!  Bliss.

1. Medical Stuff:

• 1 Day of PT…2 C’s & 1 S: Cardio, cranial, and strengthening.
• 1 Day of Home Rehab.
• My first yoga class! I modified some, but I was able to do the majority of the class. I am looking forward to learning the poses and physical movements, but what speaks to me the most is the mind/body/spirit connection; learning how to slow down, breathing techniques, truly being present, and learning how to let go. All areas of my life I need work on : )
• I saw my OMM doc on Thursday. She worked from my toes to the top of my head, to make sure everything was where it’s supposed to be. I also had ear acupuncture again, since I received so many benefits last time.

I stayed home from school yesterday…to rest. My body has been telling me in more ways than one that it needed some recovery time…and I listened. Maybe I am getting a bit wiser in my older age : )

1. Medical Stuff:

• I saw my Pulmonologist on Monday. I love when I hear the word “normal” from a doctor. My breathing tests were all NORMAL.
• I saw Larry on Tuesday for more OMM; ribs, cranial, and TMJ.
• 2 Days of Home Rehab.
• I got my glasses back for the third time. It’s true! The third time IS the charm! They do not make me sick. Yesssss.
• Going on my third straight week of my left eye twitching. I’m trying not to worry. But I’m Katie…I’ve named it Henry. I hope Henry goes away really, really soon.

Whew! What a week! If I’m being honest, I do not think I’ve been this happy to see a Friday in a long time. I don’t think I’ve had this many tears in a long time.

BUT, if I were to find a positive in all of it, it is that I made it. And I’m smiling, and the sun is out, and I have two legs, and my family and friends are the best, and I have a job that I love, and I have medical insurance, and, and, and…Perspective, my friends. Sometimes I forget.

1. Medical Stuff:

• 1 Day of PT. Lots of cranial work. Lots.
• 2 Days of Home Rehab.
• My echo-cardiogram was normal! Thankful!
• My glasses saga continues. I took my glasses back to the eye doc. Long story short, they are getting made for a third time.
•  I saw my shrink on Thursday. Fabulous timing.
• A week of POTSy insomnia.  I keep repeating my mantra; it will pass…it WILL pass.
• Day 9 of my left eye twitching. I told my Mom I think it’s Ebola. She laughed at me.
