Canossa Hospital


I've been "rehabilitating" at Canossa Private Hospital, Rehab Unit, for a couple of weeks now. The staff are all wonderful and I'm enjoying the physiotherapy. I'm allowed "leave" during the day on weekends, on Saturday after physio session and on Sunday as there is no physio. I'm under the care of a good doctor who seems curious about my "unusual" case so he's trying to find answers, but he's said it's "unlikely" I'll walk independently again. But who can say - doctors can't tell me how this has happened and they can't really know what the future holds for me. I'll just take each day as it comes. I believe I've come to terms with my current situation and that acceptance will make it easier to cope, I think. I've got wonderful support from my family and friends, so I'm truly blessed.
