More work hours

February 2nd-5th

Tuesday 2nd
Stuart had an appointment with his GP and Emma (work options) on Tuesday and he is going to increase his hrs at work to 3 full days and 2 half days on Tuesday and Thursday where he will continue with his physio in the afternoons. He was very happy with this.

Thursady 4th

Jessica and I went to physio with Stuart on Thursday, he does much the same each session and is definitely getting stronger and more confidence in what he can do. His balance has also improved as he develops his core strength. He works his core when they do the catching exercises with the swiss ball and the footy.

Walking, how good is this!!


Swiss ball catch and kneeling.



Friday 5th
Start had a visit from Emma(work options) at Rex today and they are hoping that in a few months he can go back onto the hangar floor to do some work on the aircraft, they will be doing a major install and he thinks that he can help with parts of it by sitting on a high office chair. He has also stepped up his work hours to 34 hours a week, this allows him to work Tuesday and Thursday morning and still make it to physio in the afternoons.

Where has January Gone

19th-31st January
Where do the days go!
All goes well at No. 1 Kauri Place.
Stuart has had a roll around the drive on the mower....a practice run without any grass.




Stuart continues along his road to recovery. Has got the work/ physio timetable working well and continues to enjoy work. Marcus continues to push him to his limits at physio.

Stuart and Amy both survived Sydney's Big Day Out, they had a great time.

The BDO was amazing, Amy and I flew up on the Thursday and traveled down to Wollongong together. After spending the few days catching up with friends Dave, Myself and a few other mates headed up to Sydney on the Saturday. Highlight bands seen were The Temper Trap, Passion Pit, Miami Horror, Lily Allan and Muse. It was a bit different this time around as last time I was at the BDO I didn't have my wheelchair. But everyone was helpful and it was relativly easy to get around.
