Good morning! It was a looooonnnnngggg day yesterday so my post is a little late.
Yesterday Cali and I used the bioness in my first session. We walked the stairs four times and did some walking without it. She doesn't think I'll need the bioness when I leave but we are using it here to try and stimulate that muscle thereby strengthening it. I also used a machine that is basically like something for squats but uses your own weight as the resistance instead of weights.
In OT I worked on some standing while putting a puzzle together, made brownies in my wheelchair (and standing up when needing things out of the higher cupboards), and learned how to take my current wheelchair apart and put it back together.
During my last PT session I practiced more standing by playing the Wii. Let me tell you that was pretty difficult. I had to also practice transferring my weight like I would if I was really bowling. I would love to have one of those to practice with when I go home! LOL
Finally I went to the gym here in Lincoln that Madonna built for the public and watched the wheelchair basketball practice. It was pretty cool but at times looks to be pretty brutal.
Today the Huskers are supposedly coming to Madonna!! Pretty excited to see who shows up... are we worth 1st/2nd string or 3rd string players???
