Full high tide

still amazed by dawn
i stare at the rolling waves
reaching to my feet

A lighter day as in the morning my PT does the rounds with the doctor and my OT (occupational therapist) visits patients’ homes.

The big news of the day - though my OT had hinted at it - is that I will be trying out wheelchairs so I can have my own, as it seems I’ll increasingly be needing it in the months and years to come. Of course we haven’t given up on the idea that I might still walk a bit when I get out of here, but I won’t be getting better in the long run, that’s how my illness evolves. That’s life.
