weight on the left leg.....large step with the right leg
Physical therapy will continue for another week. The therapist said that William is progressing and she wants to continue therapy. She starts working on inpatient and therefore we will be taking a break.
She has William trying to take weight on his left leg. He has a tendency to put more weight on the right leg. I cannot imagine how it feels. The left side does not have feeling.
We are still going to the pool 3-5 days of the week, depending on my work schedule. I do take him to the warm therapeutic pool. William will walk from 30 to 45 minuets. He is totally wasted after the pool.
We used the e--stem on his arm. He complained of pain. It is amazing the e- stem got rid of the pain. The arm started to hurt and it looked odd. The color was different and the ar-stemm was cold. The e-stem got he circulation going in the arm.
I have started to use the bicycle pedals again.
Everybody says that it is amazing how much William has progressed. William usually goes to the pool early in the AM. 5:30AM. He doesn't give me that hard a time. It is amazing!!
