This morning in PT the upper body strengthening continues. In chair push ups I was able to do full arm extension on 14 of 15 attempts. I have never been able to do even three before.
I also have some additional exercises that I can do on the weekend so the time is more productive.

The Journey Ends
On Tuesday morning, July 29, 2008 at 7:08, Barry's journey ended. He died peacefully at home of cardiac arrest with me at his side. The EMTs had been summoned, but Barry was ready for his journey to end. Memorial Services will be held here in Jacksonville in Barry's garden as well as one in Baltimore. To all of you who have followed Barry's Journey, I thank you. He loved reading your comments and was delighted so many of you were interested in the Journey.

I just can't picture you with a tatoo's so hopefully you won't decide you need more!
It's been enjoyable reading about all of your family and friends. The food stories are making me hungry. Some of those sound absolutely fabulous. I always knew that when we used to get together, on the road or here in SLC, we'd be eating great food!
You improvement in PT sounds great although it's probably not at the speed you'd like it to be.
You should write a book. You write well...and it's entertaining.:-) Heck, I'd buy it!
Hugs,
Nan'r
Barry, I hope you do not get muscle bound by all the chair push ups you are now able to do...LOL. Take care Ken
Good morning, Barry! It's Saturday, and we're staying at a friend's during construction, so I thought I'd write before I start cleaning their house. I miss your smiling face at work. And, I need you to come and measure my new cube...I have so much room now, I have to get out of my chair to get a pencil! Have an enjoyable weekend with your friends (human & otherwise!) Love, Carol
