To start I would like to apologise to my fans (especially Danny P) for taking so long to write a sequel. I've been subject to critique and peer review as a result. I have been mucho busy (thats a little bit of spanish I threw in there - it means much or alot in spanish - you can google it). After mucho bedrest I've had a jail break and escaped to another part of the spinal unit. It is called transitional rehab. If you are a cool kid you can call it TR for short. I can't. Its sole purpose is to preparing to go home and stand on my own my two feet, or so the saying goes.
I've been learning about emergency procedures, carer training, nutrition and good bowel routines. Also about good pushing techniques on a variety of surfaces.
Two weeks ago when mother was home, I attended a hand surgery clinic with Jen the specialist physiotherapist and the surgeon, Professor Rothwell. As a result of my hard work in the gym and lack of new movement, they will be booking me in to get my troid surgery in six months rather than a year. It is named troid surgery as it involves the triceps and deltoid muscles. The surgery entails weaving some hamstring in between my paralysed triceps, then hooking them up to my posterior deltoid. Using my posterior deltoid muscles will then mimic the movement of my triceps. I will be in hospital for 10 - 12 weeks.
Adios (goodbye)
(Tim)
