Yesterday didn't end until 3:30. You would think with an extra three and a half hours in my day, I could have fit in a few minutes here. I didn't and realized just how much I need this moment to say what I am thankful for during a day and to evaluate my accomplishments.
Today I am thankful for an outlet like this,(#22) a place to be able to express even simple menial things that probably no one but me is interested in and I am thankful that it actually helps me to gain and maintain proper perspective.(#23)
Today was a hard day, partially because of how late yesterday ended I'm sure. But there were good parts, too. I went to physical therapy today and did a reevaluation test. My vestibular system and brain function have improved dramatically since starting pt.(#24) A few more weeks and I should be back to normal. I wish we had known about this when Miracle had her brain injury, but understanding the significance of even minor trauma on the brain was just beginning five years ago and now there are clinics devoted to healing it. Medical understanding of how to help the brain heal has come a long way in the last five years.(#25) Rest is key. Especially initially. But after a period of rest, there are quite a few exercises one can do to regain what was lost. I am thankful for this.(#26)
