Sue Returns to the NRH
This morning, Suzanne, checked back into the NRH for a one-week inpatient therapy session. Since receiving her second leg, back in January, she has been without any formal training or rehab, to maximize her ability to walk comfortably. Because of the delay in the approval process, she was permitted to take a two week trip to Wisconsin, with her parents and Gabrielle, where she had more floor space to walk around, aided by the walker, than the townhouse. Approval was granted last week for Sue to return today. There, she is anticipating three, hour-long sessions daily. Interestingly, Suzanne has been assigned the same room where she stayed over one year ago. And having kept in touch with some of her therapists, everyone is arranging schedules so they are able to work with her. Once she has had a chance to learn the best exercises and a therapy regimen, she will make it part of her regular routine at the gym after returning home.

Love you sweetie. I had tears of joy seeing you walk this past weekend. With hours of rehab your comfort level will increase, and before long you'll be able to raise your leg to kick Pat in the butt. We all know he deserves it every so often. :-)
