ON THE ROAD AND GUNNING FOR THE BUDDHA I cam home from the hospital on the first of August of last year. At that time, | was bound to my chair and my bed and determined to get unbound from those things. Since that time, | have acquired the ability to transfer from one thing to another with ease. | am able to walk on my walker for hundreds of feet. 1 am able to walk freely in the parallel bars for 60 feet at a time. | am capable of standing to take care of things in the kitchen. | am capable of climbing in and out of my pool. | am almost capable of almost being able to swim at the level | could before. | am capable of walking freely in the pool for quite a distance. My body is teaching itself to balance me, since that was the big thing my surgery took away. But most of all, this last year has taught me what a lot of deeply caring people there are in my life, and in the institutions where I go for my physiotherapy. Ar some point | will be walking, not necessarily unaided. But that's OK. Because it's miles from where | started, and even though there are still miles to go, I'm on the road and closing in. Look out Buddha, I'm coming your way. (Shreikback fans will get the Buddha feference)
