Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Recovery Ward 2008
Well, I'm not sure I've arrived yet at "good sleep", but I am, I think, on my way.

And thanks for the encouragement!

Recovery is taking a LOT longer than I had thought. (Doesn't it always; sigh.)

Another encouraging thing was Thursday's physical therapy. The pool is heaven, but I saw the most progress during the "land" part of the stretching by Geoff, my therapist. I was amazed at how far up he had my arm. (But he did say, "You can't do this by yourself yet." ) But it was soooo encouraging that the stretch had been possible. At least now I know that there WILL, indeed, come a time when I can raise my arm past my shoulder.

Thanks again!
