Morning Vivienne,
Just wanted to drop You a note to thank You for Your ministrations over the last seven weeks. It has been a pleasure to meet You and travel down to learn of and be treated with the Dark art of S C E N A R !!!
As I drove back up the motorway on Tuesday I was very conscious of how much more comfortable the journey had become compared to my initial trips. I had to have a cushion under my Bum for the first two weeks! My neck flexibility is vastly improved, right buttock spasms much reduced, almost gone. My mechanical gait is almost normal and will improve further as my strength improves. Left calf muscle is getting there and there is some distance to go with the nerves of the Foot and Foot drop, but here again strength and sensitivity is improving.
Tinnitus still on the go – but I wonder sometimes if the pitch is higher – something to work on !!
Accepting that I have been having extensive Physio and Massage, both are impressed with the acceleration of my rehabilitation, borne out by those who don’t see me that often, amazed at the progress. So, much still to do as The Athens Marathon in November beckons like a Siren in the Mist !! (See Photo leading the pack – HA, Ha ! – in San Sebastian.) I will be in touch on my return from Mallorca late May. I hope to do my walk next Tuesday, and will debrief You on the Rakes Progress !!!
Many thanks, Vivienne – We have Rafael to thank for bringing this remarkable invention to my attention and our subsequent meetings !
As the Ancients said ‘ Better light a Candle than complain about the Darkness !’
Tons o’ Love,
Nick
PS Very happy for You to use my comments on the site as long as you recognise the contribution of the Re-hab Physio and Deep tissue massage.
As Henry Ford said – If You think You can – or think You can’t – You’re Right !!! This can be well applied to recovering one’s Health – a positive approach required !!
