Today was a landmark day for Kelli and her long road to recovery.
She had a session of physical therapy to check if her vertigo had gone.
It was a tense time walking into the hospital. She hadn’t had the courage to check it for herself, fearing the worst, it was easier to be in the hands of the professionals.
Assuming the number one position, there was no eye movement either up or across, signifying dizziness. The number two position was the same. Position three was the critical one because it usually triggered the worst effects of vertigo, but again, nothing. Sitting back up was uneventful, so the conclusion was , no vertigo.
This was a brilliant result, I almost sensed the the two therapists would be high fiveing each other once we had left.
Now we go through the period of training the brain to expect head movement, because for so long she had avoided them, even becoming expert at picking objects up with her feet.
This will be a gradual process, but it is a load off our minds.
The person came to collect the buffet we posted yesterday, it did look good, and the buyer was delighted with it.
