At long last Virus Free!

Hello all, it has been some time since I have been able to blog, computer virus and other computer problems but that is all in the past!
I continue to heal and look forward to going home. This weekend the 19th was my original discharge date but it has changed, I will be going home this weekend the 19th to my home, to spend the weekend seeing how I get along with things. My very good friend Linda will spend Friday nite with me which makes my darling mother happy (and me too). and then home for good June 26th.
What a trip this has been, I originally thought I would be writing profound thoughts on this blog, but that hasn't been the case, the reason being is that there has been so much going on here and the focus has been on healing and getting stronger. Learning to walk is a very complicated thing. Now that I am getting around to thinking about going home away from the safe protective enviornment of the Rehab...well lets just say there is alot to think about....the neck is fine according to Dr. Oxner, who besides being a brilliant surgeon he is tall dark and handsome and is a sweet man, and so is the back which according to him was "smashed" (he might not have said that word but something similar if not so dramatic hehe.)
But I still have lots of healing to do, for example, I am numb from the chest down (just under my breasts) I really didn't give that much thought till now but I have to be very careful about heat and cold, cuts and thumps along the way, nothing that can't be done but something to think about. It will most likely get better as recovery can go on for 24 months after the accident. I will have to sell my car which is a standard as I would not trust my left leg to handle the clutch safely, and I swore I would never have a automatic car.....never say never! haha

I have been thinking about all the things which have happened since the accident which people would put down as "coincidence" or "small world" but I see the Universe "handling things" I don't always understand why or the purpose of the "coincidence" but trust the Higher Power does. I am compiling a list which I will blog when I am finished...so amazing. I will sign off now but stay tuned I am up and running again and will keep in touch.

Love to all....
