A blog that is following the life of Cecelia, living at home after her stroke (which left her with right side paralysis and aphasia). There's no place like home!

Spinning
Every day Ceil uses, what I call the "spinner" to work her legs and to warm up her joints before therapy. Ceil really enjoys it and will spin for almost 20 minutes at a time. Afterward, we usually go for a morning walk and enjoy the morning sun. Today, Jane was here working with Ceil on item ID, reading comprehension, and proper introductions and how to ask for things she needs. Ceil had an 80% comprehension rate on her reading skills, which is up quite a bit from just three weeks ago! Another tradition that has just came about is tea at three. Ceil is usually up from her nap by 3:00 and enjoys a cup of tea, (British style) with fig cookies, or another kind of sweet. It is just a nice way to wake up and enjoy a simple pleasure. We will enjoy the rest of the day and look forward to another walk with Linda after dinner. See you tomorrow.
