October 15???? How did that happen??! Conditions for Getting Better
Just this:
- No stairs or hills or driving
- No standing or sitting upright for more than a couple of minutes
- carry a camping stool for waiting in lines ( if you're well enough to be in line somewhere...)
- 3 bites/hour - put 3 bites into baggies and into the fridge because most of the time you're going to be too sick and just grab what's there, or skip food altogether. 4 of those baggies need to be meat
- 10 to 12 hours' sleep every night and no animal bed partners
- comfortable bed, comfortable couch. Physical comfort level should be very good to excellent 100% of the time.
- warmth, sleep in heating blanket at night. During the day, lie on a heating blanket so the heat goes directly into your spine
- no sugar, no grains, no gluten
- clean house, chemical free, scent free... did I mentio NO STAIRS?!?!!!
-I'll remember more and add.
Seriously, if you don't have every single condition for your recovery, you just won't recover, ever.
