Perseverence

Today John worked on doing his left turns. It is such a mundane thing to do but takes a lot of patience and practice. Today he was able to make a couple of sharp left turns as well as smaller ones before he was too tired. He also was able to maneuver himself out of his room by himself and I have no idea how he managed because it is narrow and very tricky. In the afternoon they had a New Year's Eve Party - Midnight in Scotland! In the evening he had a shower and watched the Canada/USA hockey game. After that family came and we shared some time together. For those visiting I want to let you know on Monday, Jan. 4 John has an afternoon appointment and won't be in until later afternoon.

  4. Laverne, how right you are; John how did you manoeuvre your chair out of that small door opening to you room?
    Congratulations on that fine feat...

    It is quite an achievement, one you can be proud of with all the hard work you are putting in.

    Happy New Year to you both as you begin to start new challenges and enjoy successes together.

    LOL... Gerry and Alma
