Once again I have to begin with an apology for not updating as frequently as I should.  To make it up to you, I have posted a new video called "Stairway to Heaven". It’s captures me ascending the basement steps with my...well just check it out in the video section. Although I say in the video it is dedicated to the doctors I have encountered during my recovery, I would also like to dedicate the video to my friends at Project Walk-I am sorry I cannot be there with you for this years Steps to Recovery.  But keep up the hard work- I’m talking to the trainers and clients alike.  In other news, Mandy and I have finalized the purchase of my van.  The driving system is currently being installed and should be ready by the end of this month.  I done several hours of driver training with hand controls and I am excited and ready to get back behind the wheel.  As far as recovery is concerned, as you can see from the latest video, I am still progressing and getting stronger each day.  I now have a climbing harness in the basement that is suspended over a treadmill and I have been spending about 2 hours a day on it.  I cannot walk for 2 hours but I am on my feet the entire time and periodically take a few steps.  This has been especially important lately as I have been battling a pressure sore (my first)!  It is healing up nicely-thank goodness.  Thanks for checking in and thank you all for the birthday cards and wishes!
