Update on Jim Robinson's health issues

Posted on 10/30/2023 10:11:14 PM PDT by Jim Robinson

Spent the entire month of June in the va hospital. Again (second year in a row). And then 4 1/2 months in a skilled nursing rehab facility. Solved some of the medical issues but I'm still under the weather. Arms and hands still extremely weak. Still in bed for most of my time. Still can't sit in my powerchair very long. Still can't feed myself, etc. Still can't type. Still using voice recognition software to enter posts, etc. Very slow.

Our big problem right now is Chris is overwhelmed and stressed out. We're now looking for a full-time, live-in 24/7 caregiver. We can offer a salary plus room and board to the right person.

So basically, I've been in bed now for a year and a half And I've lost most of my strength. It's gonna take a lot of therapy To get me back on my feet. Still praying for miracles.

Thank you all very much for your continuing prayers and support. God bless.

Electronic Muscle Stimulation? Like this guy?

I can imagine you going door-to-door tuning people up for welching on donations. Good clean fun for a great cause!

Seriously though, the collective power of the prayers and positive wishes from all your fans compels you to get better! The VA here in Middle Tennessee saved my life from cancer and rebuilt me well enough to return to work - utterly miraculous for a small income guy. So blessed to be American under God. May he continue to watch over you.

I think it would be ideal in your situation. Good luck. If your doc isn’t for it but you research it and determine you want to try, there are plenty of different affordable units available online. Some are pads placed on muscle groups to stimulate, some are in wrap/belt forms that can work arms, legs, and abdominals. All have adjustable intensities so you can set the level to whatever you can tolerate. Over time your tolerances will increase.
