Joe said his final thank you. See you later!

Joe with Todd, chief physical therapist and Geffa, a visiting PT from Germany who helped Joe a lot. She and Joe traded favorite German expressions. We can return to Vallejo for out patient therapy as Joe improves.

We have hired two very large men to help with Joe's care at home. It is a work in process as we adjust to our training routine. Meals, stretching exercises, assisted stretching, icing, more meals, more washing, etc. In between I walk the dog and try and breathe while Atu and Jay help with Joe. I could not do this without them. Pictures of these two great guys will follow. Joe continues to improve with his movements, so all the therapy is very important to continue. We visit doctors next week and that should be another learning experience, dealing with paratransit. That is it for now. Sandy

  1. Welcome home Joe and Sandy. Glad to hear the continuing good progress as we cycle and hike our way through Moab, Arches NP. Tomorow on to Durango and higher elevation riding and hiking.

    Keep up the good work.
