These Socks Are Made For Walking

Veronica just walked all the way from the recliner to the bathroom holding the OT’s hand, but she did it without a walker. The OT had her brush her teeth. Veronica was very glad to have a clean mouth. After the tooth brushing Veronica went for a walk with the PT. Veronica held the PT’s hand and walked all the way “around” the floor. I would guess that is was 50 feet. Then she and the PT did some exercises turning around and looking side to side. Here walking improved with every step she took. When she got back to the room she asked me to open the shades a little bit. The shade part is almost as big of a deal as walking so far. She is exhausted and resting in bed now.

    I wait for each update with much anticipation and report the news to our whole family. The kids offered a van ride in silence for Mrs Sheck’s dizziness this afternoon. You’ve inspired everyone on the home front with your bravery and faith.
