On the plus side, we're going to go to some shops on Oxford Street, which I haven't been to for ages, which should be really nice. We're probably going to get taxis around London, not sure if we trust ourselves to a) find tube stations with wheelchair access and b) manage to manoeuvre myself onto the tube..
On a different note, I have now heard back from all of my 5 university, with conditional offers for all of them :D
Reading- ABB
Aberystwyth- BBB
Bath Spa- BBC
Nottingham- BBC
Plymouth- BCC
I'll come back to the university talk when more happens, but now its just a case of going and seeing them and deciding which offer to accept :)
Also, I have recently seen my 8th physiotherapist and an occupational therapist. The first 2 times I saw the physio I was very irritated that he assumed he knew what was wrong with me and assumed he could cure me. He actually said, and I quote: "I'm going to assume the MRI scan is normal."
After 2 sessions of that, I saw an OT who was lovely, and very helpful. In fact she told me I should be using crutches without me mentioning it, and that I should get a bath seat fitted and a support splint for my hand and wrist while writing/walking/pushing my chair.
She told me I should ask the physio if there was any reason I shouldn't have crutches, and I was dreading his answer. Surprisingly, he accepted it, assessed my walking and then agreed, so I'll finally be getting crutches once the new order comes in in a few weeks! Happy days!
