		<description><![CDATA[Last Monday was the last of 35 External Counter Pulsation (ECP) treatments Steve has undergone for congestive heart failure and angina. When each hour-long session was completed, he felt pretty good, and toward the end he was able to walk without a cane for about 275 feet just touching the wall for balance. His legs [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[When Steve had a massive ischemic stroke in February 2008, it paralyzed the left side of his body. Regaining arm function after his stroke looked grim. This one-sided paralysis is called hemiplegia. But as weeks went by, he started to regain leg movement, but nothing in his arm. So the diagnosis was changed to one-sided [...]]]></description>

A new home health care agency opened up in town, and they offer free occupational and physical therapy, plus skilled nursing care to those who qualify. Presently they only have a temporary license to practice. They need 10 patients under their care in order for the agency [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[A side effect of Steve&#8217;s stroke was breathing difficulty. It wasn&#8217;t anything that could be treated with a pill. While he was in the nursing home he got instant relief from the labored breathing on two occasions when Krista, a substitute physical therapist, worked on him. She was just filling in and commuted from another city, but she had [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[About 6 months after Steve&#8217;s stroke, he started aquatic therapy at the CP Center working one-on-one with a physical therapist. When the insurance ran out, they offered us a pool pass for 10 one-hour sessions for only $20 if I worked with him instead of the therapist. That worked out great because I knew what to do. And there was [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Aquatic therapy is going well, and Steve&#8217;s one on one time with a therapist has been extended for a few more months. He also joined a group class for stroke and head injury survivors, but it&#8217;s not as challenging as the individual therapy. We finally got his ingrown toenail taken care of. This was absolutely necessary in order for him [...]]]></description>
