I'm progressing...thanks for asking Hank.
Just today I was able to switch from a leg brace to a knee cage...my ankle now has enough movement and range of motion that the full support of the leg brace is no longer needed.
The knee cage prevents the knee from hyper-extending backwards due to a weak hamstring. We're working in therapy to strengthen that area.
I walk with a cane...haven't used my wheelchair in weeks. I now can climb stairs.
A little movement in my shoulder and thumb & index finger now...nothing much yet in the elbow or wrist...therapy focusing on that too.
I take a driving aptitude test on Friday that no doubt I'll pass...finally will be able to drive my truck but sadly not the manual trans Chevelle...the stroke happened two months ago yesterday.
Doing four 1hr therapy sessions per week...greatly helping in my full recovery!!
