Week 3

This blog covers days 15-21. First of all, having older parents take care of you is quite a bit of work. They don't know where anything is, even after a couple of days. I tried to hide out in my office, but was continually interupted by parents needing help.
Accomplishments: I showered by myself, slept in the bed one night - the recliner is still more comfortable, increased shoulder rotation, slicing veggies.
New PT exercises: assisted overhead lifts and drops behind by head while lying down, exterior forearm presses against a door jamb, hand presses into a door jamb with straight forearm.
Bent elbow abduction while lying down with elbow bent is still limited in range.
Accomplishments: Unscrew Gatorade Cap, Walking 3.5-6 miles per day, learning French
