Stuart was showering when I called in this morning, was getting ready to go with Lewis to and check out his bike. Keen to see what needs to be done to get it on the road and Lewis is willing and able to help Stuart make this happen.
He got back to Calvary in time for lunch and have a rest before his workout with Marcus.
It was raining when we arrived at physio, Stuart had been able to get down the hill and keep dry. Marcus did some electro stimulation and stretching on Stuart's legs before his attempt at walking today. It seemed to help, lifted the right leg through a little better and seemed to stand tall. He was rather tired by the time he got back to the plinth and sat down.
He spent some time on the exercise ball before they had another go at kneeling and working on his abs and gluts...trying to keep his balance. This exercise is really hard, he did much better than his first attempt on Monday, although it seemed to hurt his right knee. It is a real challenge.
Marcus than worked on his lower back again and he finished with the muscle electro stimulation, also got a heatpack on his back today as a special treat.
It was raining as we finished so I dropped Stuart back at Calvary where he was met by Michael and Ben, guys he used to ride mountain bikes with. He was quite excited and pleased to see them.
We both are going to have an early night as we are hoping to go to the hydrotherapy pool at 5.30am tomorrow morning.
