So if you read my Day 0 post you will know I am trying to recover my body.
I have been feeling a lot better in the last couple of days. I often find now that I forget I have a problem which is a good sign. My walking feels natural which is incredible considering how hard I was finding it to walk just a couple of weeks ago.
I still have some minor problems, particularly with my eyesight but it's still improving and I hope to be fully normal in a couple of weeks.
As such, this is my last rehab post of this format. I will still report on my progress. I used to run a few times a week and hope to get out again soon. Not quite there yet.
Anyway, today I had my nephew visiting and we took him to see some of the sights of London. We walked over 12 km around the city.
Here are some of photos.
Tower Bridge
Tower of London
The Shard
The City
South Bank
Parliament and Big Ben
Trafalgar Square
Covent Garden
Piccadilly Circus
Carnaby Street Christmas Lights
Regent Street Christmas Lights
And finally New Bond Street Christmas Lights
I decided to create a table for each day's progress because it will help me to see my progression as I recover.
