7We have hit another period of flatlining on PlanetChip. I guess that’s probably not a bad thing. Last Friday morning our supposedly new modem shit the bed. We have just switched to Verizon and so far it’s been a horrible experience. This doesn’t make things any better. It took us to late yesterday (Tuesday) to get it switched and our Internet back. It’s shocking how much the Internet now affects my life. We had to go crawling through all of our crap just to find a radio Friday. For a good while I was without TV, radio, and Internet. I literally sat on the bed meditating or staring blankly out the window for hours until Erica got home.

Rehab is still hard. I I am averaging about 70 feet walking with the walker before my knees give out. It’s still very difficult to watch. There is no rhythm or flow. It’s more of like tortured shuffle for now than a stroll. I have a lot of work ahead of me to build up some muscle and then we learn the proper rhythm of walking again. It’s gonna be a while especially when considering I will be dropping to one session a week until my insurance approves a second run (and if ObanaCare grants me insurance). At the beginning of next year we will have to apply your insurance again to see if they’ll pay for some more. If not the rest of my rehab will be up to myself and I am not always the most motivated person in the room..

I hate all the stupid US insurance stuff. Like you don't have enough to deal with without worrying about funding rehab. If it all goes wrong and you're thrown on your own resources, I volunteer to come over and zap you with a cattle prod every time you try and give up on moving. Should provide the necessary motivation and it can't be more painful than dealing with insurance.
