Oh my, your poor daughter! And your friend too! I had a friend I worked with at an elementary school few years back who was just discovering dry brushing and the school let out for the summer and our lives kind of took us in other directions and I kind of forgot about that. I may look into that I think anything that helps to keep the blood flow circulating and keeps your body awake in every area . I grew up with a paraplegic stepfather who was injured at the age of 27 when us four kids were little. I don't know how my mother didn't lose her mind. All that to say over the course of growing up we watched him struggle and learn and compensate and manage and even grow and flourish in the condition that he was in. He's been gone many years but this past week I have thought of him so many times throughout the day trying to manage my little tasks with the pain I have and thinking of all the inventive ways he had of overcoming obstacles in his way. Some of them were comical to us -watching him in a wheelchair. We learned as children what empathy and compassion were, but mostly resilience and tenacity. He had such a strong will to live! Thank you!
