Constant Beast Mode! What a great feeling it will be to walk through that door! Thanks for sharing this journey with all of us. I know it’s not over but it has been very inspiring so far. Keep up the positivity!
This is THE BEST video!! What a journey you and your family have been on. Todays Homecoming will be such good "medicine" for all of you. Congrats on all of your hard work, perseverance and pure determination to get to this point.
ADAM - thank you for that, so amazing. I am beyond excited for the Feberwee family for you to get to this next part of your recovery. To be able to hug the kids and be around that amazing family will give you so much energy. Brace for a powerful afternoon! Love to all.
Very inspirational clip. Great to see so many smiling faces almost from day number one. Shows you again that “It's not what happens to you, but how you react to it that matters”! Seems that you will be the one doing grocery shopping from now on; they clearly prepared you in the hospital for that. As they did for cleaning the house and potentially washing the car (“wax on, wax off”). On a more serious note, all the best man the coming months. It might not be always smiles, but if anyone can recover it is you! Talk soon!

Saturday August 22nd I waited a long time for this moment. A moment I’ll never forget. We all cried, we all hugged, we all needed it. Released back into the wild at 3:30 on Thursday afternoon... Jillian was there to take me home. From the moment I went into the hospital until the moment I left, she was always there when I needed her. I had the best welcoming committee there to greet me. The kids made the most amazing signs and cards… Aqua therapy has been fantastic! It has definitely been an adjustment coming home. More so than I thought it would be. The frustration of having to ask for help with everything. I mean everything. Definitely need to take time to rest. Gone from puttering around my hospital room, to having to navigate the house and yard. Friday: A couple of errands that HAD to get done on my first full day at home… Went to the DMV with dad 😒🙄 and LensCrafters to get some new reading glasses 🤓. Not sexy but like I said...
Wednesday August 12th Skies before Sunrise GRASP - Graded repetitive arm supplementary program GRASP is an arm and hand exercise program for people with stroke It can be undertaken by the patient on their own as homework It is highly recommended the patient has assistance from family Grasp has three exercise levels to accommodate different levels of stroke severity The exercises are designed improve range of motion, strengthening, weight-bearing, functional tasks and fine motor skills. It’s going to take a lot of work and a lot of time, but hopefully I’ll be able to eventually perform such simple tasks as putting toothpaste on my toothbrush, doing buttons up on my shirt, or taking off/putting on the lid of a jar. As crazy as it sounds… All three of those things seem like monumental tasks to me right now. Jillian caught me hard at work on the blog in my “hospital office”.... I feel like I hit the jackpot today with my lunch… Steak Pie! Yeah, so what if the thing was the...
Monday August 17th Joker on a staircase That was me today… Joker on a staircase. I went up, and down a flight of stairs today. Believe it or not but this is very exciting. Now I did have not one, but two spotters… LOL. And I did have a cane. But I made it. Up and down. I have been going up and down four steps in the gym here but hadn’t attempted a full staircase yet. Now I know I’m ready for home. 🏡 Speaking of going home...It turns out my discharge date has been moved up to Thursday afternoon 🙌 because there is a large group being discharged on Friday morning. I figure if Jillian picks me up at 4 o’clock....I can catch the 4:30 GO train into the city, be at the KEG by 5:30 🍻 , dinner at Jacob 🥩 ...maybe head to 2CATS around 10...Then head to the Matador when that shuts down. 🙄 KIDDING! I can’t wait to GO HOME! Thanks for dropping off lunch this weekend, Johnny! 🍆 On a completely unrelated note, I wore shorts with a butt...
Welcome home, Adam! Going to be the best homecoming ever!
