953 nut 63,984 #3 Posted Thursday at 03:59 PM Just finished this morning's PT, walked three times further than yesterday and will have another "play time" (PT) this afternoon. The recovery center has all kinds of "whack-a-mole" type games that we play while standing as well as great exercise equipment. 5 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
