Like a recruit in bootcamp, I got my first pass off base today. We were working on dialing in the manual assist wheel chair last week and today we got to give a it a real world test as we went down to the boardwalk by the ocean in Mission Beach. Didn't end up in the sand or hit any rollerbladers, so the trip was a success! Molly and Dan Foley came with me, along with my therapists and we cruised along the boardwalk for an hour or so. We also grabbed some tacos down by the beach.
More exciting news, Molly and Charlie are now in escrow on a new house! I've only seen pictures but the place seems great and has an ADA equipped bedroom/bath!
Love to all!
It was a beautiful sunny SoCal day and it was wonderful to see Eric out and about! The tacos were a nice break from the hospital food too!
