The Update

Its been close to 2 months now and the battle rages on the arm regeneration front. I won't get into great detail, but there has been no improvement as far as feeling or movement which is disheartening. At the moment I'm trying to muscle my way into getting an appointment with Periphary nerve specialist in Calgary so I can one on one with him over treatment ideas. I've been educating myself with vigilance. My day is consumed with stretching, natural medicinals, physio and occupational therapy, strength exercises and wading through medical journals which hopefully will direct this sheisen show back to a normal arm. The fact of the matter is nerves take years to heal, so naturally we arent going to see anything anytime soon. This is the ultimate enduro battle.
Besides that I'm still in the hospital suckling at the proverbial "Teet" of the health care system. I enjoy testing the health care system in my own special way.



So sweet it is. Here I and my friend Bob are using the lengthy hallways of the hospital to perfect wheel chair dog-sledding.
"Watch out sir you may fall and break a hip!"
"Already have lady, I got nothing to lose!"
Occasionally though you may be covertly attacked unbeknowest in your sleep. Like this for example...



If I catch the girl who did this...
