My last blog entry confirmed my life was great. I lied a little... it was missing the ability to accomplish a sit up. A sit up is an easy task for most people but it was something that I haven't been able to do since my transplant. During my surgery my abdominal muscles were cut and I lost all feeling in that area. I have been working on my core strength daily for the last 5 months but still was not able to do a sit up. I asked Dr. Guy during my last appointment if I would ever regain strength and she had no idea... I was the first patient to obsess over doing one. I know its a weird thing to obsess over especially since I can't remember the last time I did a sit up before my transplant.
Well folks.... CHECK THIS OUT!
I CAN DO SIT UPS!!!
I bet you are asking why I am not in gym clothes? This was taken at a photo shoot for Blood Source, they are using me on their promotional items.... I am hoping for the blood mobile! ( don't worry...not these pictures, LOL) I was so excited that I was telling them about my sit up so she took a picture so I can use it on my blog.
I wonder what my next obsession will be now that I have accomplished a sit up! Stay tuned!
