What my day is like

My days have settled into a daily routine. In the morning I typically undergo some manner of psychological evaluation or speech therapy. At 10 o’clock I enter occupational therapy, which mostly has to do with bringing my right arm back to its previously more useful state. Next is a lecture about some aspect of what I have had to endure. That brings us to noon, when lunch is served. 1 o’clock kicks off physical therapy in which the team of therapists works on reviving my right leg. After that is either a detailed endeavor working on my right hand, or else swim therapy. Then I have off for the rest of the day.

So that’s my life, and will continue so until, at this point, February 15 when I finally get to go home.

Oh! I should also mention that I am not typing this with my fingers. I have been making extensive use of the Dragon dictation program. It has been extremely useful and I cannot recommend it highly enough.

  1. Good luck to you. My father suffered from strokes, and I know how tough they can be to deal with so have you in my thoughts, and really wish you the best. You were one of the people I was most excited to meet at the NYCC this year.

  2. Do you truly like Dragon Dictation, or does the program just automatically append that to everything you dictate?

    (Great to hear from you!)

  3. You’re doing great Pete. It’ll take time, but it WILL all turn out OK. You’re moving along impressively.(Yeah, I know there is a pun there, but you already thought it).

  4. PAD: In the morning I typically undergo some manner of psychological evaluation….

    Luigi Novi: And how do you feel about that?

    Seriously, It’s heartening that you’re not making these updates yourself, and that you’re taking all the steps necessary to get back on track.

    We’re all pulling for you!

  5. Hope that the Dragon software is helping to alleviate some of the boredom and giving you a cretaive outlet. YOu continue to be in our thoughts and prayers!
