There are so many things that I’d like to wish for but they seem too self centered, so I’ll wish for more of the compassions of my heart. I sponsor a child in Sri Lanka, Sunethra’s about 12 now and I sponsor a dog through a local animal shelter, Sixpense was born with four deformed legs. If I had enough money, I’d sponsor another child and another dog or maybe a cat. Pensions don’t stretch enough to do so.
from my heart,

Wishes

Hi,
This is something that bothered me and still does. I wish a physical therapist would LISTEN to what the person getting physical therapy wants. I’ve gone to PT off and on and intend to go back to it and I know “I” need them to move my arms and legs and stretch them to loosen very tight muscles, but they do what “they” think I need.
I am extremely numb and if I touch myself it’s a sandpaper feel, numb hands touching numbness, so when I do touch myself, I can’t tell how far the numbness goes. I asked a therapist to trace up the leg from foot past knee so I could feel from someone’s normal touch how far it went. She wouldn’t trace, she just spot touched, which told me nothing.
