I know many of Kimber's friends here have been more than patient in waiting to speak to Kimber, :angel2: I have to say the peeps of ScubaBoard and some of the other forums have been nothing short of incredible, IMHO. Anyway, I was speaking with her today for a little while and she said to let everyone know she is ready to start chatting with peeps through pm's So when you have a sec, feel free to drop her a line, or two, or three, you get the idea :winky: Maybe catch her up on what has been going on with yourself since she has been under the microscope for so long, just a thought, go with whatever you'd like to say.

Just note, pm's are best for now this way she can reply at her pace.

I don’t know but I see this as another positive step for her...interacting with her friends here.

Copied from updates thread:

This update is going to be quik and dirty because of how late it is. First off thank you all for all your great pms it may take me a bit to get bsck to you but I will. Secondly Installed a program om my palm based cell phone that will allow me to chat with yahoo nessenger, msn, aim and icq. I welcome anybody to send me a message you just may want to mention where you found me so im not left wondering. Right now that type of chatting is easier than pms.


yahoo --- skydncyr
msn ---- skydncyr@yahoo.com
aim ------ skydncyr
icq ------- 6979187

Soon I will give an update on my progress which has been great.

Love,

Kimber

Ok, this is a long overdo update. I am going to rehab Monday thru Friiday 9:00-3:30. We work on my cognative skils, physical theray, and occupational therapy. Physical therapy focuses on my lower body, walking, balance, leg strength, stretching etc. OT focuses more on my activies of daily living such as putting my shoes on, putting my jacket on as well as focusing on the upper body. We are working on my right hand which is weak. We are also working on my right shoulder, scapula and peck because they are alll really tight. It is a full time job right now.

I am wallking everywhere now and use the wheelchair minimally. I use it to take the public transportation to therapy but once I'm there I park it in the corner until it is time to go home.

The kids are great and have been home a few months now.

Thats about all. Thank you all for your continued support.

Love,

Kimber

Carried over from updates thread:

OK time for another update. We had a family meeting this past Weds. where my team of MDs and therapists meet with my family and ppl helping me to discuss my progress to date, current goals, future goals and things that may get in the way of me acheiving those goals. This is also a time my family can ask any questions they may have.

Suffice it to say it went great. I showed progress in all areas. My insurance company has approved me for 5 days a week thru Dec 22. They are going to request I drop down to 3 days a week after that. They think I am ready to venture backout into the community in some fashion. I am not sure what exactly Iam going to do on those 2 days but we will figure that out.

I asked my MD about driving and he said not yet. I also asked him about theraputic horseback riding (look it up it is really cool) and he said yes.

All in all a great report. I am kinda nervous about dropping down to 3 days a week. I am not sure what I will do with my time. But I must contine forward one step at a time. Thanks again for all your support through what has to be hands down the toughest thing Ihave ever been through.

Love,

Kimber

Kimber that*really has to be the best present of all! So, so happy for you and your family. :wave-smil:
