Recovery
today my recovery is from a hangover.. i swam yesterday then the fair came to
staplehurst so i extended the birthday drinks a little.. so just the isqueez to keep the blood circulating, tomorrow back to physio - swimming and FES bike.
The FES bike has lots of benefits, such as:
Training the cardio-pulmonary system for improved fitness
Rebuilding of muscle strength and bulk
Improvement of bone density
Improvement of blood circulation and reduced risk of bedsores (Decubitus ulcer)
Improvement of intestinal and bladder function
Improvement of responsiveness to insulin (diabetes)
Decreases in limb spasticity
Improved feelings of well-being
Where the boma wheelchair although electric opens up the world again - being in my chair unable to move
rooms without assistance is soul distroying… with the boma i’d be free to escape when I wanted..
BUT again the cost of everything… i have e-motion wheels and the permobil C500 electric wheelchair that i’m hoping to sell to raise the funds for the boma.. does any one need either of these..?
