Chico's Recovery: Vacation
http://chicosrecovery.blogspot.com/2011/07/vacation.html
Wednesday, July 27, 2011. We had two weeks away. Not much of an agenda, we saw great family and friends (but neglected to take pictures of them-that was a miss). We enjoyed many happy days where we felt much gratitude for life, health, good fortune, great friends and family. Longest vacation ever. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). He made it to Northfield safely. Chico just walked a mile-4 laps! Then he jogged a fifth and cycled home. And he's feeling pretty good about it. Breaking trail to The Ledges.

Chico's Recovery: November 2010
http://chicosrecovery.blogspot.com/2010_11_01_archive.html
Sunday, November 28, 2010. Well, we made it to Lake Champlain yesterday and then some! First I took Chico to 'my' hairdresser, Andrea, (An-dray-uh) who I knew has also been in a serious car crash. I thought it might be helpful for them to chat. They shared stories, she marveled at his transfers and more to the point: Chico got a great haircut. All the while huge snowflakes drifted down outside the glass in the parking lot. Really, there was a sort of blizzard, you just can't see it. The weather had clear...

Chico's Recovery: January 2011
http://chicosrecovery.blogspot.com/2011_01_01_archive.html
Wednesday, January 26, 2011. Wearing new shoes tonight. Two of them! Monday, January 24, 2011. I see we live in an odd looking house. January so cold, sun so bright, how can that be? I've never felt warm in winter before. Saturday, January 22, 2011. In the late afternoon Chico walked to the market and back with me. He wore sneakers on both feet. I noticed the left one, the one below the brace, had a hole in the toe. Hey, do you have another pair of running shoes? OhWhat are your running goals? Actually, ...

Chico's Recovery: First Year Anniversary
http://chicosrecovery.blogspot.com/2011/08/first-year-anniversary.html
Monday, August 22, 2011. August 20th was the first anniversary of Chico's accident. He is doing well; he is not fully recovered but he can walk short distances with a cane and he is finding ways to keep the pain under control. We are still optimistic about ongoing recovery. Appropriately, we celebrated with Pam and Reinhold. We talked a lot. We could not have made it to this happy meal without your love and support. Thank you, blog readers!

Chico's Recovery: Under the Wire
http://chicosrecovery.blogspot.com/2011/06/under-wire.html
Tuesday, June 28, 2011. I want to post before July 1st, otherwise a whole month will have passed without an entry. As we come into the summer season, the season during which Chico's injuries and recovery began, I feel wonder: holy smokes we're almost back at August 20th. He's come a long way; he has a way still to go. The world feels different still to both of us. We notice this. Chico remains incredibly resilient, willing to work at this and eager for more improvement. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Chico's Recovery: Intrepid
http://chicosrecovery.blogspot.com/2011/05/back-to-chico.html
Monday, May 9, 2011. Chico remains in great spirits. He walks inside with one crutch, outside with two. He often has pain; he rarely complains. Chico has biked in the gym but it usually makes for a very sore evening. We went out. I had difficulty taking photos and keeping up! You'll see what I mean especially in the second video. This is just about 100 yards up the street - or maybe 50 yards - from our house. Chico knows that to keep the bike upright, one must keep moving! Video number two is entitled,.

Chico's Recovery: September 2011
http://chicosrecovery.blogspot.com/2011_09_01_archive.html
Thursday, September 15, 2011. This fall has been full of reminiscing about last fall. Today we went to Albany. It was the anniversary of the last surgery. Chico is doing well. He has plenty of pain but the surgeon was pleased to see that Chico can walk without a cane-at least for short distances. Hopefully the next foot corrections will be taken care of with orthodics and more PT. The tree too has healed. It too has scars. We move forward remembering. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Chico's Recovery: December 2010
http://chicosrecovery.blogspot.com/2010_12_01_archive.html
Wednesday, December 29, 2010. Progress takes Focus and Determination. And Chico seems to have a good supply of both. In the pool too. Chico walked a third of a mile in the water. Our big hope is that he'll be able to walk one lap around the track (1/4 mile) in July, unassisted. That certainly puts new perspective on 'weight bearing in January,' doesn't it? Monday, December 27, 2010. Snow, snow, snow and more gorgeous snow. Sunday, December 26, 2010. Before you know what kindness really is. Pam and new do...
