You asked me about my rehab, in a different topic thread.....

If you would like to read the first post in first page of my previous thread,
called,
For my SF friends,

It's a general note of how I went into hospital.... then followed by rehab now, starting a week ago. Maybe a few more weeks.

I have this thread going now, on that subject as well.

I didn't get into medical specifics, on the forum, but thanks for asking and for caring.

Its 2:45pm, and i've been waiting to see if o.t. or p.t. have me on their schedule for today.

They didn't know yesterday, and the nurses don't know today. :rolleyes:

On the weekend days, a patient might have one or the other, instead of both o.t. and p.t.
Or i might have 1 of the 2 days, off from both.

And I had both on Saturday, yesterday,
so i might not have either today.

A nurse just told me that but she's not certain either.

I would sure like to get off of this small unit and do some more work.

I will say though, that I do see that I am getting stronger, today.

Been here at rehab for a week.
Would love to go home.

But I'm sure i need to and would like to be stronger, when I do.

So I will try to be a patient patient.

I know that your positive attitude is going to go far in getting you up and about, and closer to going home.
Meanwhile, I hope there is an enjoyable activity you can spend time on. Do they have a room where you can work on a puzzle or something?

Hi Pinky , and all .....

I'm spending most all my time in my room.
The hall is very short .
The only general room on the unit is a small dining area,
Which I don't go into, by my own choice.

There's covid here,
so I wouldn't eat in that room ,
Plus the other Patients on this unit.... are in very depressing shape and don't interact.

When no one is eating in there, the large tv runs constantly, which I find too stressful and depressing.

I have not watched one minute of TV, in hospital or rehab, and I seem much better without it.

I got off this unit once today, when a nice nurse assistant showed me the small library.
They're usually too busy.

Thank you, Pinky.

I hope that things are going well for you, this month and winter season.
 
We are spending the holidays differently this year, Kaila. Daughter is in a new relationship, so, spending time with his family this year .. fair enough. Yesterday, older sister hosted Xmas dinner at her home, an hour away from us.

Sorry to hear that socializing where you are, is neither safe nor pleasant. Even a colouring book might be enjoyable .. give your hands something to do. It's good that there's a library there.

Thank you for the well-wishes. Tomorrow, we are just going to stay around the city. Maybe take a drive downtown and look at people walking their dogs (we are dog-lovers), then go somewhere for an early Xmas dinner.

I hope you're getting more sleep these nights. Good to hear that you feel stronger .. very proud of you!

Glad you're feeling a bit stronger despite your sporadic therapy sessions. Must be frustration not knowing if you'll see someone that day or not.....hugs. Hope you can get to go home soon, and be strong enough to live there on your own. Good night, hope you're getting some rest.

Good morning everyone.

I sent a note to the person I mentioned in above posts,
And they will either reply or not reply,
They'll either like what I wrote or not,
They'll either read it or not......

I can't control any of those.

But it was disturbing me, so I made another attempt.

I'm getting stronger. And having p.t. soon!
That matters!

Good move Kaila, I know it was really bothering you, as it should. Hoping that you get a positive reply. 🌷
 
It's not where I'd like to be this week, here........ and with personal holidays as well.....
And no visitors.

Don't know what husband will be doing but not coming here.

I'm sure he would like me at home with him.
Well hopefully not too long.

Had good o.t., today.

No reply, so they either read it and did not like what I wrote, or they saw it in their box and did not read it. :rolleyes::(
