Is it (SLIGHTLY) "SAD"?!

Movie qotes are a GREAT sign that my accident didn't COMPLETELY ERASE my memory. I.e.   ."CHIM-CHIMINEE-CHIM-CHIM-CHY-ROO, HOO!" THAT'S from 'Ace Ventura: Pet Detective'.   (I DIDN'T LOOK IT UP!)

THIS IS HUGE!

..."THAT'S WHAT SHE SAID!"--'The Office' Joking aside--THIS is a bit personal--, but I JUST "asked" staff to sit me on my "porcelain throne".  So, while there, I BOTH secreted urine AND excreted fecal matter!

"THAT JUST HAPPENED!"--ME

So, my Occupational Therapist just came to my room and asked me to try putting on a shirt.  So, I put on a tee-shirt--over my current shirt--with VERY LITTLE assistance then took it off.  I repeated this procedure 'sans' undershirt.  (RELAX, LADIES!)

I'm ROLLIN'!

In physical therapy just now, I rolled from the "on-my-back" position to "prone" twice in each direction.  THIS IS HUGE!  ("THAT'S WHAT SHE SAID!"--Michael Scott, 'The Office') I also lied (NOT laid) on my stomach and played Connect 4.  (I won both games, but THAT'S NOT IMPORTANT!) "I'm talking about FORM!  I'm talking about FUNCTION!  GOD--THE DEVIL--HELL and HEAVEN!"--'One Flew Over the Coocoo's Nest'

MORE PROGRESS

Today, I demonstrated--by "going through the motions"--(to completion) (INCLUDING squeezing the toothpaste--that I can brush my teeth.  Oh yeah!  THIS was my "Occupational Therapy" today.

A STEP BACKWARDS

...UNFORTUNATELY! This morning a new staff girl woke me up and tried to put me in my chair--AROUND 5 A.M.!  I resisted, so she tried rolling me onto my BAD, INJURED shoulder and dragging me in my bed.  IS SHE ILLITERATE?!  My "file" says that my left shoulder is SEVERELY injured.  THAT HURT!

I'M GETTIN' THERE!

In P.T. just now, I practiced INITIATING--AND COMPLETING--my rolling--from my back.  After rolling, I would then maintain my balance--lying on my side--each time for ~ 30 seconds.

I'VE ALREADY BEEN IN 1 CAR ACCIDENT!

The staff here always laughs, because EVERY TIME I "pull up" to an intersection--4-way (HERE), I STOP, LOOK LEFT, RIGHT, THEN LEFT AGAIN, THEN "DRIVE.  (I CONSIDER MY MOTORIZED WHEELCHAIR A "VEHICLE".) So, I'm just abiding by the "RULES OF THE ROAD".  (Was THAT from 'Rocko's Modern Life'?)

PARDON MY TRUANCY!

I STILL MADE IT IN TIME FOR THE HOLIDAY! So, I HELP with my scrubbing while I'm in my shower.  (THAT was a TAD personal, but it's a "step in the right direction.) MORE AT A LATER DATE ...

THIS IS KINDA "PRIVATE"!

(LITERALLY)
(I have been doing THIS a lot recently, [but] just tonight I actually did the deed IN MY CHAIR!) I SUCCESSFULLY used--WHILE HOLDING--my urinal.
