Thank you, thank you Patti!
For years I made up things to do.
I mimicked the machines that they put in my hospital bed and would,
using my arms. pick my legs up and drop them. Then touch my toes and
put my head on my knees and breathe. That's all
I could think of to do ( for my legs I have 1- 10 pound free weights
and do wheel chair pushups for my
upper body)
Today when I awoke I tried to push my legs down as she had
instructed.. Told my knees to press down. Saw nothing.
But did it again and again, My isometrics. Did my situps, my head
on knees, hands on toes.
Then I tried to lift my legs.
AND SAW MOVEMENT.
Thank you Lord!

I am so happy for you I could cry - I think I am. It sounds as
though your PT lady is an answer to all your prayers. After 5 years
of no help, I know it will time for you to really see any
significant improvement, but I know it will come. It will mean a
LOT of hard work, but I know you are up to it. Keep up the hard
work and try not to get discouraged. Please keep us informed so we
can celebrate with you any improvements.
