The past 3 weeks my narrow told me not to drive so I feel like I'm on house arrest. It's because last month I fell 31 time and have the medics out three times to pick me up off the ground. I seen my neuro a week from yesterday. I am feeling better this has me on home health I get a bath aide twice a week and I have physical therapy twice a week. The ladies from my Bible study have been bringing me food once a day. I found out I have a bad sprain on my right wrist from one of my falls and it's messed up the shoulder again. Today I'm going to be picked up and I'm going to be riding on a bicycle that has two seats in the front and somebody pedals behind in our Irrigation festival parade it'll be nice to get out and see people again. πŸ‘πŸ˜Š

Yesterday I rode on the front of a bicycle I didn't actually ride pedal the special bicycles that says yeezys for people with special needs to enjoy the outdoors. They have two bicycles that they have pilot people on the other side to make sure everything is safe really quite impressive. I the best thing is it's free!

MSfrog. Please be careful on that bike as this my really test your balance even if you're starting to feel better. I hope you have a big strong person peddling in the rear, strong enough to catch you if you go to Take a Tumble in fact to catch the entire bike! Let us know how the trip went. Fancy.

I know I'm not to far you from the driving stand point. My neurologist knows she has the ability to pull it at anytime. With medication I can do about 12 miles daily and after that I'm not that compent with it.

When she does I will be crushed and won't know how to deal with being a shut in.

I hope things get better for you and you can rejoin the real world.
