i can walk in water!

today when i went to the courage center for my stay-fit therapy program in the pool, my transportation van had to pick up another man who was also going to the courage center. i asked the pca (who went with me swimming to assist me) what time i went swimming when we were outside in the van waiting for the other man who was going with us. i did it because i was making sure that we would make it to our appointment and the pca told me that i had to be at therapy at 12:30 and it was already 12:15. the other man finally got into the van and we finally got to the courage center and i grumbled, "WELL, AT LEAST ONE OF US WILL BE ON TIME." later on when the driver was unloading my wheelchair, the driver asked me if i was impatient today. i didn't say anything to him, he knew i was impatient and mad. i wanted to get my therapist's advice on why i walk with my hip slanted to the left, she said that it might be just because of the way i sit in my wheelchair every day. she stretched me out in the pool and then asked me what i wanted to do next. at first i said that i wanted to stretch on the bench and then i decided that i wanted to use the water walker because i probably wouldn't have had any time to walk in the pool. she walked me to the water walker. we started walking with the water walker and pretty soon she stopped assisting me by gently not holding onto the walker and letting me try to walk with it myself. i started walking alone fast, so i think that maybe i might've just been falling forward. i eventually started walking slower when i got my balance. i walked with the walker all by myself for the last 5-10 minutes. when i returned from swim therapy i told maurice about when i walked with the water walker by myself and he didn't really understand how much strength it takes to walk in the pool by yourself. maybe it's just me being excited, so i might be expecting praise. my therapist was surprised and she told me that i could tell my grandma at my appointment with the neurologist. my grandma is going with me tommorow to see the neurologist and she's gonna make sure that i get off some medication. she feels that i'm over medicated and i agree, i never used to be on all of this medication before i had a seizure. i'm glad that i'm going to get off some of this medicine becauce it makes me tired.
