8.

Originally written in April 2010

I got great news recently - back to therapy for me! My insurance switched tactics and as of April 1st they have erased all therapy received in 2010 and allow you 8 visits of physical therapy and 8 visits of occupational therapy without having to get pre approval. Yay! So I am back at it once again and it looks like I have improved once again, can't wait to feel like I have a good handle on my fine motor skills again!

I spent the day yesterday with Laura, it was so nice to just hang out with a great friend for the day! We walked on the beach, went to lunch on the boardwalk, went back to her apartment, watched a movie, got a pedicure, went on a hot date to World Famous - what a day! Every time I spend time with my friends it reminds me how lucky I am that I have such great people in my life, I know I wouldn't have recovered this well, this quickly if it weren't for my beautiful support team! Phone calls and plans for future outings keep me going, I am so blessed to have busy people make time for me and wish me well in this LONG recovery process.

Lauren had these Team Nikki shirts printed while I was in lala (coma) land. Every time I wear mine I am reminded of the love and support from my friends and family, and it pushes me to work that much harder to recover.  Plus, my shirt is pink; how could I not love it?
