Try to make me go to rehab and I say…

Yes yes yes!  At least for today.

Mum had a great day in rehab today, despite being tired and sore all morning. Put in the gantry and ‘flown’ to the sliding machine, she managed a number of leg presses with her left leg at different angles, making it up past 10 degrees.

She then went to the bar and managed to stand, put weight on her left leg and straighten her knee several times. It was so fantastic to see Mum have such a great session before I drive home to Canberra tomorrow.

I took some photos of Mum’s achievements today and they’re below.

    Hi Genny, wonderful to see you vertical. Such a big achievement in so short a time: though it will have seemed an eon to you. Know it must be disappointing with the delay in transfer but maybe you’ll make some more good progress before the Brisbane rehab stint. Lots of love, Ronda.
    PS Thank you, Gennevene for all the updates. Have a restful ? time in Canberra. xxxx

  2. Great work, Mum. Awesome effort. All the hard work will pay off. Love you, Rick
