On Wednesday was my four month appointment with Dr. C. He cleared me to pick up anything under 20-30 pounds and bend over. We forgot to ask about sitting up (not logrolling), so Mom E-Mailed the office and asked. E, the assistant to Dr. C, answered that I was doing very well, and that I was cleared to sit up and lay down in bed normally!!
Since I went for over four months without bending over, my hips get tight when I bend to much. And, since my core and my back muscles are weak, I have to push off of my arms to sit up. But this morning, I sat up all by myself!!
I actually kind of feel normal, now that I can actually bend, pick up 20-30 pounds worth of cats, and sit up in bed. It’s a big milestone to be able to do that, after over four months of not.
