Five For Friday 9/6/13

Written by Katie. Posted in Five For Friday

1. Medical Stuff:

  • 1 Day of Home Rehab.  I really failed this week at finding the energy or the time to rehab. This obviously has to change.
  • No PT. My “break” is almost over.
  • No doctor’s appointments.
  • I spent Labor Day going to Urgent Care not once, but twice, for an infected toe from a pedicure. Long story.
  • Insomnia. Sigh. You all know it’s my fave (insert sarcasm here). I have to keep reminding myself that, “this too shall pass.”

A Letter to one of the Best

Dear Dr. Lavallee,

I got your letter last week.  I think I smiled and cried at the same time when I read you were leaving your practice in South Bend and moving to a different practice in York, PA.  I immediately felt so happy for you but sad for us Michiana EDS’rs.  You have been there from the beginning, ever since I discovered I belong in this special club we like to call “zebras.” 

Five For Friday 3/8/13

Written by Katie. Posted in Five For Friday

I’ve never missed a Five For Friday.  Due to the fact that I admittedly have issues, I have to post last week’s for my own peace of mind so at least it’s documented.  Otherwise, I may lose sleep.  I know, I know…Issues, I tell you.

1.  Medical Stuff:

  • 1 Day of Physical Therapy.  Lots on the Reformer!
  • 2 Days of Home Rehab.
  • 1 OMM Appointment for cranial-sacral therapy and an OA release on my neck.
