Great weekend


Aussie Ken

623 views

Back from the South Coast of NSW after visiting my sister for her birthday. It was great to see her face as she had no idea that i was coming and the fact that i hadn't emailed or rang her the suprise was incedible and very emotional. One of my older brothers also traveled down from sydney. it was also great to catch up with my nieces and nephews and see how much they have grown. I travelled well with well planned stops and breaks. The road vibration also privided stimulation to my leg and foot, so more feeling is coming back. Although the weather was ordinary it wasn't to hot or cold for travelling. so i have gained more confidence it travelling.

That's a long way for an overnight trip. Interesting that the road vibration was good for your leg and foot. You might be on to something there!

 

Happy birthday to your sister. I bet it was one of the best birthdays she's had.

Ken, that gathering of family re-enforces your worth as a person. I just love get-togethers where Ray is still treated as an equal and a person who belongs. They don't happen a lot but we just got an invitation to a cousins' gathering just before Christmas and that put a smile on his face.

 

I was just looking at Sarah Snow's post on get togethers, maybe one day we could get together with you and Craig G from the Blue Mountains as we are the nearest NSW members?

So very glad to here about your great weekend - sounds like it was a brilliant surprise for all involved!

 

Good for you on the planning and improvement from the vibration - that reminded me of when my OT recommended that I get a small muscle massager - at the time there were some on sale very cheaply at the local Sportshop for $10...... I did and used it on my left arm to help with the issue of taming sensation (rather than encouraging it) as I was having issues with too much of a reaction to any kind of stimulation - warm water felt like searing hot, cold felt like ice and so on.......

Since you did notice some improvement it may be a good idea to follow-up with one of these small devices

Excellent to her some good news :Clap-Hands: :Clap-Hands: :big_grin:
