Hello Everyone! 22 Months after onset

and I made a big mile stone in my rehab. I had an injury to my shoulder while in rehab I fell and they picked me up or tried to pick me up, six times by my arms before they got me back into bed. That injury took 8 months to heal. I tired like crazy to stay out of having an operations and it worked in my favor. As a result my rehab taught me to walk from a standing position. After I got out of bed or out of a chair. I never learned how to get up off the floor like a baby. I have complained that has stopped me from doing bigger and better things but this is one area that I was ignored and they held to their rehab plan. Also, it took awhile to get my strenght back up to where I could pull myself up on a chair or couch or the bed. I left it that way, but was fearful if I fell in the back yard or at a store or in a parking lot I had nothing to pull myself up on, so I stayed home rather than go out by myself.

Well 22 Months after my onset I am able to get up from the floor without hanging on something for dear life. I am actually able now to get one foot under me and lean on it and push down to come up without any trouble. I struggle inside for more strenght, but I have mustarded up enough to get me out of a jam. WHAT A CONFIDENCE BUILDER! So this is just another example why we should not give up on ourselves. Hugs for everyone! Join me in celebrating, keeping possitive and not giving up!
