What a crazy, busy week. I am laying here typing, looking like a zombie, and feeling very thankful to have my feet up right now on this sunny Saturday…

1. Medical Stuff:

• 1 Day of PT. We are trying to do more of alternating muscle groups when I come in. Since I worked my upper body so much last week, I did tons of core, glute, leg, and hip work. Holy burnnnnn.
• 2 Days of Home Rehab. Treadmill; still trying to increase my incline slowly, light weights, scap exercises, toe rises, lunges, proprioception work, and light stretching.
• I saw Larry for my monthly appointment on Tuesday. My first six ribs were subluxed so he focused on my upper back to get everything to calm down and move back into place.

End of February, already? How in the world did that happen?!

1. Medical Stuff:

• 1 Day of PT. Tons of scapula fire exercises to help strengthen my upper back and neck.
• 2 Days of Home Rehab. High treadmill inclines, floor exercises, balance work, and light stretching.
• Zero doctors.

1. Medical Stuff:

• 2 Days of Home Rehab.
• I was supposed to have PT on Tuesday but when I showed up, I was told to go home due to having a fever and a sinus infection.
• I saw Larry on Tuesday before my scheduled therapy appointment. I had been feeling yucky so when the nurse told me I had a fever, I was not surprised. In addition to having the usual cranial and back OMM, Larry also wrote me a prescription to take care of my sinus infection. I am happy to say I am feeling much, MUCH better now.

Dear Family, Friends, 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 3rd Annual, “An Evening with Chris Trapper and Tony Lucca to Benefit Invisible Illness Awareness and Research.”

There have been many meetings so far.  So many triumphs.  So many acts of kindness and generosity.  So many emails.  And yes, even a few frustrations and tears along the way.  I have learned that just goes with the territory.

Two years ago, the dream was born for Allie and me. 

1. Medical Stuff:

• All PT was on my own this week.
• 3 Days of Home Rehab. I hate side planks. Just putting that out there.
• I had my annual pulmonary function testing done this week. My test results showed all was clear.
