Wrapping up week 3

I am beginning this program at something of a deficit -- I have quite a few issues that must be resolved before I am able to begin therapy in earnest. Among these issues are:

scoliosis
subluxated right shoulder
sacral decubitus ulcer
heterotrophic ossification

Not the least of these issues are the musculature-induced scoliosis in my back and the subluxation of my right shoulder. I suspected both would be a hindrance, but each has proven to be a significant impediment.

This therapy program is not a quick fix -- it's not even a sure thing. It will be years of work, and progress will be slow -- yet I find myself inexplicably excited by the prospect.
