Uptown Girl!
Yesterday I went the farthest yet on my own, up to 96th and CPW to my dentist's office. I took the 10th Avenue bus up there and walked the block and a half from the stop to his office. The uptown bus was definitely a smoother ride than the crosstown double length job, with all its weird rattley segments, so even though I was on the bus for much longer (try 40 minutes!), I was ok. On the way home, I was very close to the C train, so I ventured down the stairs and, surprize! It was ok. I was worried again about bumping and jostling, but it wasn't crowded at all and it was really fun to be on the subway again, without the cane and without Tyler and without worrying.
I'm actually starting to feel not only like a normal human again, but a New Yorker! Yay!

Hi Ingrid, I'm back reading your latest Back Blog entries, and glad you're doing better, and have been able to get around - what great news! As they say, "You GO, girl!" :) Whenever I see Tyler & Tony I ask to send my regards, and hope to see you out and about, esp. as the weather warms up.
Take care,
Phyllis up in 17-C
