Prolotherapy day.  It was a quick trip this time around.  We got up at the crack of dawn.  Drove to Mishawaka.  Got gas.  Ate Subway.  And went to my appointment.

I was weighed.  My blood pressure

Brad and I returned to good ol’ Mishawaka last night, in preparation for my prolotherapy treatment I had this morning.  We hit our usual hot spots: Life is Good, Meijer for Fat Tire and one Chobani (for my breakfast), and then Papa Vino’s for dinner…

I found my brother a beer called, Ranger, at Meijer’s that I decided I just HAD to buy him since he will be starting

1.  Medical Stuff:

• 3 Days of Home Rehab.  I did a lot of treadmill work this week.
• I thought I had an OMM, cranio-sacral appointment on Thursday.  When I got to my appointment,

Well, this is a record for the latest I have ever been for a “Five For Friday.”  At least I made it before Sunday.

1.  Medical Stuff:

• I had a couple of wheelchair days.  I tried my best not to get down about it.  My Mom helped with a little tough love, as in “suck it up, it’s temporary, sit your butt down in the chair…”  When we got to the mall last Sunday, she reminded me that my wheelchair, Wilamena, gives me the freedom to do things, I would not be able to do otherwise. Thank God for my Mama.
• 1 Day of PT. Focus~Strengthening and neck manipulation.
• 1 Day of Home Rehab.
• Prolotherapy round 12 was yesterday.  I got about 90-some shots, but who’s counting?

It was back to Mishawaka for more prolotherapy on Friday.

Sometimes, we try to add a few “fun” things to our trip, but this time, it was all about business.  We drove to the office, I had the shots, and we drove back.  It was a prolo day, so of course, the Weather Channel had declared a Winter Weather Advisory to begin at about the same time we got into the car to head home.

At this point, Brad and I have just come to terms with the fact that prolo days mean snow days.
