The last couple weeks have been intense with Physical Therapy but I am close to being done. I have come A LONG ways in the last six weeks. Today I was joking with my therapist and said "when I came in these doors I could not do that." She replied "I know and we are having you get ready for the circus." I said "yup." The different amount of activities for therapy, yes I feel like I will be in the circus or a tap dancer :). After therapy I will transition to a gym and they are setting me up with a program for me on my own. I never thought of myself joining a gym, but determined to keep going. I have started to take short periods of running and it feels so good to do. I am more eager to get back to my bike.
This has been a long journey and yet one to be continued as I continue to work with relearning to hear and regaining myself back up with balance and my life. I will continue to learn what works for me in communication but I know I made the best decision in helping myself and achieve my goals. No it has not been easy and know that there will be more challenges, but like my title Pushing through the Ice.
As Christmas is approaching I am joyful for the gift of hearing and my CI's. Thanks to my doctors, therapists and audiologist, along with the support from family and friends and strength from God, making a difference in my life in keeping me positive and determined to push through the ice. One thing that I have learned through this and will continue to strengthen, is no matter what you may face in life, believing in yourself through all thing and being able to reach your goals.
To me I am able to once again enjoy Christmas music and many sounds that I have been missing for the last several years.
Merry Christmas Everyone and thank-you for your ongoing support and prayers.
The song "Breathe of Heaven" inspires me right now as Mary questioned why she was chosen to carry Jesus. As we all question things in life like myself right now I am reminded that he has a purpose and plan greater than we see.
