One more step towards a step.

I was out of the hospital again this morning for a Dental appointment in Chatswood to get the shade(colour) for my crown done. A rather interesting journey to the surgery as there were some serious hills and gutters to navigate. Luckily there was a kind man to help me up them. It was nearly lunch time when I got back to 7D, so did some washing and sorted my space out a bit, it was starting to get a bit messy.... especially with all my new gear.

I headed to physio at 2 where I got myself on the plinth to do some stretching, I managed to get into a kneeling position using the pillow as a stop and slowly moving it back more and more until I took it away altogether.



After this Damien and I decided we try some standing on the parallel bars. I was able to lift myself up using my arms and then using the techniques from trying to stand in the pool and the stand up lifter machine from last week I was able to hold myself in a steady position. Damien then got a splint to hold my right knee locked and
I was able to transfer weight from left to right leg. It was the most unassisted standing I've done so far and it felt so good to do it. I can't wait to do more tomorrow.
