Discharged!

Wednesday, June 15th, 2005

i’ve been so busy reworking this blog that i can’t believe i forgot to say that i’ve been discharged from PHP. this actually happened 3 weeks ago. i didn’t have an actual last day. on Monday, May 23, i called in to say i was running late. they told me not to come in because none of the other patients showed up! but remember–at that point, i was the only one under 60 years of age, so maybe everyone else just had an even slower start that day.

so the Head Therapist said that it was ok for me to come on just Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. but when Wednesday rolled around, i was so ready to be out of there. besides that, we were running late again, and commuting together just wasn’t working out even though it was fun. now that Brian is Mr. Big Boss Businessman at his job, let’s just say that his starting time is more fluid than other people’s. or at least more fluid than mine was at PHP.

anyway, Brian and i went into the office the therapists share and i told them that i felt that i was ready to go. Head Therapist was leading a group at the moment, but Yoga Instructor Therapist and the Intern were there and agreed. Yoga Instructor Therapist said that I was in the “action” state of my recovery, which i was. but how could i take action, like go back to my martial arts classes if i was sitting in the hospital all day? and that was that.

the next day i was back in martial arts and have been there regularly. the past couple of weeks haven’t been the greatest, or at least they haven’t started out great, but i was able to salvage them for the most part and not totally freak out. i just freaked out a little bit. not totally. i’ve been seeing my individual therapist again so that’s been good.

just yesterday i received a nice note from the PHP staff wishing me well and saying that i can call them any time i need help. this PHP experience was much more positive and helpful than the one i went to last year.

it sure is easy to import and export entries between TypePad blogs, other than the fact that you have to change the category for every . . . single . . . post. this could take a while.
