Gaining Strength in Physical Therapy – June 12, 2006

June 12, 2006

I continue to make strides daily with my Physical Therapy.  Last week I was able to lift my leg/foot off the table (Monday), get rid of the cane (Wednesday) and started walking up the steps as you all do (Friday).  It’s been a long time since I have walked “foot over foot” on the steps.  Today I was given the clearance to SIT BEHIND the wheel of my car … not to drive but to practice moving my foot from the brake to the gas, etc.  I also have to practice pressing & holding the brake.  We are working to strengthen the thigh so it can hold the brake for a period of time.  As you can imagine, I can’t wait to drive again & I am very close!
