A word about my blog .....

I'm using this blog to keep notes on my life and experiences, plus to keep track of my own recovery from a stroke (December 2006).

For those of you who were not aware, my brother, John, died on February 10, 2010. His remains were cremated and interred at Green Hills Memorial Park.

0202 saturday

Jim Y came by in the morning to pick me up for our walk. It was overcast and dreary, so he wore his cold weather gear (t-shirt instead of a tank top). We headed over to Liberty Park in Cerritos, where he helped me walk the pavement between the all-weather track and the playground.

I almost made it to the end of the tennis courts before turning around for the walk back. It took about 80 minutes for the roundtrip. I can feel the improvement, with greater strides and a faster pace.

We had lunch at Carl’s Jr., then headed over to Target to pick up a few items. Jim had me home by 2pm.

A YEAR AGO TODAY: I fell out of bed last night, so they moved me back to the bed by the door so they can check on me easier. They also installed a “bed alarm” that goes off if I should move again. It took me about 15 minutes to figure out how to disconnect it, since I really didn’t have anything else to do.
