Rise Up!
with Matt Potratz
Positive change!!
AWESOME NEWS from yesterday at the pool! I've been putting my left arm (bad arm) up on a small backboard to let it float on the surface and try to move it without the resistance. No luck the first day but yesterday I could let it float out a little and then PULL IT BACK! I did it a dozen or more times and even lightly bounced the backboard off my body a few times! It was such a good feeling to see my arm MOVE FOR THE FIRST TIME since the accident!
Little setback…
I've had some regression in my spinal injury over the last few weeks. I'm losing significant strength and coordination in my right hand, my good hand, and some struggle with left leg motor and balance as well. Have a spinal MRI tomorrow, January 25, to see if we can pinpoint the problem. Results soon.
