Finally an Update

Summer is here! I am happy. It has been a long time since I have updated everyone so I thought I would write a few things.
First off... I am done with all the therapies!!!! Yahoo! I have been clear from PT and OT for two weeks now. I have gone back to my family doctor and he is happy with how things are progressing. I am exercising on my own and doing strengthening exercises for my back and arm. Right now I would say I am at about 90% back to normal. Not sure if I will get back to the full 100%, but I know it will be close. Praise God!
There are only a few troubles I am having now. There is still numbness in my right fingers. Notice, it is only in my fingers, the palm of my hand is getting feeling back! Secondly, I have gotten vertigo back.... the room spins! Some people get high on drugs to get this effect. It naturally happens to me. I know what sets it off, but we are trying to figure out how to stop it! My doctor wants me to go see a neurologist just to make sure nothing else is going on.
Lastly Ry and I are finally going to get a much needed vacation. We are going to visit my sister Kay and bro in law Pierre in CA. We are excited about the trip and things we are going to do and see out there. The past 6 months has been a trial that we have learned a lot from. I am here and God is good once again.
