week update

Hello there,

Me again. Busy, busy week. Very busy with homework. I finished the first draft of my treatmentplan for the exam of casemanagement july 3rd. Hopefully it is what they have in mind. Instructions are lousy as usual.
And I started reading the books for the coaching course that starts in September.

Wednesday I tried to drive again. It had been months and it went well!!! Drove for an hour. My arm was very painfull when I got out of the car and I could not do much for the rest of the day and thurday but friday I was almost back to normal. Very quick recovery for me!!!! Yeah!!!!!

Friday the much awaited neurology appointment for my headaches. A biiiiigggggg let down. The examined me for two hours, prodding, poking, questions etc. Couldn't find anything alarming wrogn, which was good. But the solution was..... more fysiotherapy. I could have come up with that myself and I am not hopefull. But I will keep an open mind and will try it. The fysiotherapist who is helping me with my jaw problem is going to help me with this. I will discuss thing with him on friday. I was also surprised they did not adress my intake of paracetamol. I have been honest with them and they didn't say I had to stop or take less. Something I had expected.

Today saturday. Jaco came by for a cup of tea. I discussed my driving and he took me to an abandoned parkinglot to practice parking and backwards driving. [yes I am female] He has an automatic which takes a bit of getting used to but it isn't as difficult as I thought it would be. Things went okay, not too much pain and no prizes for beauty but I managed it. Then he talked me into trying the motorway. Which I haven't dared doing since before the RSI. I tried but on the on ramp I completely panicked. I couldn't see what I was doing so we stopped on the hard shoulder were I had a fit of hysterics and hyperventilating. Luckily he stayed very calm. So I know for sure that i need a couple of driving lessons to manage that again. Because I want to be more mobile again.

Football is here. Tomorrow is the first match for the Netherlands. I foresee a dissapointment. I don't think they are going to get far. Then the country can return to normal. Now everything you buy is orange [national colours] and all you see on the telly is football. I will be at a birthday party when the first game will be played. We will have the telly on though. Some are huge football fans.

It is finally hot here!!! Summer!!! Hope it stays this way for my trip to Germany which starts in 2 weeks time. [hopefully the dutch team will be home by then. Because I am going were they have their training camp LOL]
