walking

I did walk some today, I did some laps in the livingroom. It sure was nice to walk and not roll in the wheelchair. I am not very good at this walking thing....You would think that walking is a piece of cake and I would be the first to agree with you, but my balance is so-so and I haven't put any weight on my left leg for 5 weeks. But I am sure that I will get there with some pact rice.....

I know that everyone that looks at this was not in the hospital so I am going make another reference. Most realize now that I rode a helicopter to the hospital which was the best possible situation. For the people that had the opportunity to visit me in the hospital they know that I could see the helipad from my room. Everyday I was able to see the comings and the goings of all the helicopters at the trauma center. You would not believe it, but 3-5 helicopters per day drop somebody off at the hospital. Obviously all these people need help now, which is alittle mind blowing....I have told alot of people in the fire dept. that someday it would be nice to ride in a helicopter, but I don't want to be strapped to a backboard. Be careful what you wish for......
