Hello, I attended my first Pre rehabilitation session today at my local leisure centre to prepare me for my forthcoming lobectomy in Blackpool. After more probing and prodding I was measured,weighed, inspected and underwent a fitness test which I passed! Might be in the first team squad this weekend. I was then shown round the leisure centre including the pool, a wall that people climb up(there surely must be a joke here) and finally the torture chamber which I was assured is the Gymnasium. It contained all manner of weird and wonderful contraptions which I am allowed to play with tomorrow. My Therapist spoke about new and exotic experiences I can look forward to including Aerobics, Yoga, Resistance Band Routines etc. I am looking forward to Toe taps and Band Squats. What on earth is a glute? Moreover, I am on a path to wellbeing. I look forward to all these therapies and exercises which are sponsored by Preston Hospital and are completely free pre and post op. I will be fitter than our butchers dog apparently. I can’t believe I am saying this but following my GYM WORKOUT tomorrow I am going to play 9 holes of golf- weather permitting. Wow! first golf I think since August. Stay well.
Hi Garviv . I'm struggling to keep up with all you are going through. Others would have thrown the towel in ages ago. The carrot of getting out and knocking a few balls about must be an incentive for you to return to full health. As always, wishing you and your lot Best Wishes going forward.
