Therapy at HEALTHSOUTH; 'It is Hard'




  Today Leif was up at 6AM to have his vitals taken, receive his medications, and have his cereal and banana.  The PT [Physical Therapist] had Leif work out with Elastic bands today. He was working on 4 muscle groups doing 20 reps each.  A headache came during the workout. The OT [Occupational Therapist] had Leif doing walking and stairs today. The ST [Speech Therapist] worked with Leif’s cognitive abilities. She said his abilities are through the roof. These classes help to move Leif along on the ‘Path to Recovery’. Leif shared tonight:  ‘there is a purpose for this time in my life; I seek the Lord in order to keep my spiritual and mental balance’.
Blog Friends, Leif says ‘It is hard’. Let’s be strong and carry him into the presence of the Lord through prayer. Thank you friends! Improvements are seen in his life daily.  He has pain, he has some deficits, but he is a faithful fighter.

  1. Leif - please know we are praying for you in your recovery and also praying for your parents for the continued strength to walk with your through this journey. God does work in wonderful ways including through the blessing of such skilled doctors and nurses.
