New Developments

Hi all! I hope everyone has had a good week so far. I have had a really busy but positive week.

Nick and I have made our decision on prosthesis and we are going to Oklahoma City :) We are really happy to be moving forward and to see what is yet to come. We have an appointment this coming Monday for a new fitting and new socket. We really feel that this is a place that can provide us with the newest and best technology. :)

We also went to Fossil Rim this week in Glen Rose, TX. For those who aren't familiar, this is like a safari in Texas. We drive our car through a guided road and see animals from all over. The animals come up to the car and we feed them. It was such a great time. We saw giraffes, zebras, deer, eagles, water buffalo, ostrich, emus, and a lot of other roaming animals that actually stick their heads in passing cars to get their grub on!

Ryan and I have had a great time this week. Since he's 6'3" he can lift me with ease and can just toss me into the passenger seat! We've rented movies, eaten out, played chess, and Ryan even uses Matthew's electric scooter to zoom to CVS for my scripts!

Charlotte and Beth at rehabilitation have really been pushing me to get my coordination and strength back. I've had to learn how to balance on my knees while randomly pushing me at different directions to improve my reaction time.

They are really keeping me on my toes, no pun intended! I'll post more later this weekend.

Love,
Jen
