soon I hope to show you some of the tricks I use to get the messages through from the brain to the muscles - what we're trying to do is forge new routes from my working brain that byepass the part that is now dead.
One very good tip I got from Steve who is actually my occupational therapist who fixes rails in your house (- a great guy - a breath of fresh air - someone who loves his job) :use the none -working part of your body to do anything you can think of- don't just leaveit to rot - I'm already giving my 'dead hand' things to do: just an hour ago I got it to help carry a heavy tray (two handed)down the garden This was a risky business and when I felt my duff hand slipping I stopped :got a better grip and went abit further - Whoopee I got there wthout dropping the tray with all it's contents to indside the greenhouse- where I wanted it - the feeling of achievement was tremendous.
Come back again and see what new things I've achieved - it's good fun really!
my, I'm tired - off to bed for some beauty sleep -if it indeed it exists !
Encouraginng each other to be assertive is something that is very important to me! Relying on others can be very frustrating. People using their own initiative can often achieve far more. Self belief is important! We llive in a town where this already happens so much . It will be natural for us as to do this more and more..
