In the rehab facility they only cared if I was functional and safe and what I looked like may not have been important to them, it was and is to me! When I left that facility I found a great physical therapist who understood I wanted to wear nice shoes again. I'm wearing orthopaedic shoes now to correct my spastic foot and I'm sure I can get rid of those once. Big problem for me is stress. This increases my spasticity and causes pain.Tamarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07359000064787191210noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8174880937451768707.post-71316123723917262002014-10-09T21:00:42.341-07:002014-10-09T21:00:42.341-07:00And therapists want you to practice perfection, no...And therapists want you to practice perfection, none of this trial and error stuff.oc1deanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02302555382262295577noreply@blogger.com
