Well, last week I visited Hendersonville and while I was there, I made a point of visiting Thoms in neighboring Asheville. Walking back into that hospital gave me an eerie sense of coming full circle. All the difficult physical therapy came back to me instantly as I walked the halls effortlessly.
That's me in the center with friends.
I was so pleased to find that one of my old therapists was still working there, a mere 20 years later. Jim, my old physical therapist has since moved on. Last I heard, he was Rehab Director at a hospital in Louisville, Kentucky. I gave the PT department an inservice. I talked with them about what had happened to me as well as show them my old rehab videos. I let them know that I could be available for them if they felt I could be useful to them.
After seeing the dramatic recovery I made since my rehab video they decided that I could be of help by making presentations to families , current patients or whomever would benefit. One of the PT's gave me the number for the person who heads up the Head Injury Association...we've been playing phone tag thus far, but I would really like to get involved in speaking to head injury groups.
Who knew that I would recover so dramatically?
Do YOU know of a group that would be interested in my speaking services?
Also, if anyone who is reading my blog has anyone that they think would be good for me to get in touch with I'd love to hear about it. Please feel free to contact me HERE.
