Day 20

I give it 24 hours, maximum, before my nan brings me a clipping of this news story (source chosen very much on purpose) http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-2800988/world-man-spinal-cord-severed-walks-paralysed-fireman-recovers-thanks-uk-research.html

In other news, I had an ultrasound of my right arm and clavicle (the site of my PICC line infection) to rule out a blood clot. It was a precaution, nobody expected me to have a blood clot, but I've got a blood clot. Amazing.

In even better news: this evening I did TWO trips out of bed with my frame, and on the second one I managed to get my foot flat on the floor!

I'm pretty much the same mood wise - some good days, some bad days. Still extremely tired, though, and starting to feel like I'll never be discharged.

Anyway. Chin up.

Love Emily x
