DAY TWENTY FIVE Oct. 11
Still sore and unsteady today, but stumbled down to rehab 1st session. Dr Zhang checked my shoudler, said it's just muscle pain now. Might be 10 days or so. Two more patients from Ireland arrived today with Freidreich's Ataxia, like Deb.

VERY smoggy out today. Can't see much.

Went to Voice at 2, and made my first venture into the gym in a week. Even got on the rickety miniature bike. Getting some exercize makes me less wobbly. Sally has gone to McDonald's for some MEAT.

Although I'm not doing that well, we see success all around. One of the Austrian babies, a one year old named Max, could only lie flat on his back, making little eye contact. He's a sweetie pie though, smiling when tickled. Three weeks later, he can hold his head up, is trying to talk, looking more like a normal 1 year-old. He was actually a triplet, whose twin sister is fine at home with Dad, but whose other sibling died at birth. It's good to see Maxie doing well.
