Right now I am under the care of a doctor at the University of SF and and at my latest appointment she was happy with my progress so far. My hand and arm has been affected the most on my left side. Being a left handed person this has been a challenge! But this last week I have been able to use my hand and fingers to hold a spoon and feed myself, which is definitely exciting progress!

I am doing some walking and other exercises that has been helping to strengthen my left side. I have been picking up light weight objects with my hand, my arm has more range of motion and I am walking better. I do have the numb, tight feeling in my arm and fingers still but thankful that I am able to use it more than I had been.

I do appreciate your love and prayers as I could never have done this on my own! I am thankful for a God that cares for me and knows the future He has for me. So I am trusting Him for my day to day needs...
