Physio equipment
Sometimes the simplest and cheapest of equipment, can make all the difference. My new physio, Kathy, has got me using this hand rail in the nursing home. I put my feet on the floor and pull myself forwards to the edge of my seat of my wheelchair. Then with nose over my toes, and concentrating on standing, I pull myself up and try to weight bear on my feet. Kathy and CJ support me, and I count to five, weight bearing on the balls of my feet. Then I sit down. I repeat this until I get tired. Today I changed weight from one foot to the other. Later I said to CJ, "You know, I am going to walk again..." The Babe
