[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 59761, member: 1991"] Linda, I'll post some detailed pages about some of our local sights, but I think you've had glimpses before of our beautiful beach and other lovely sights. I've got to work with difficult child 3 now, but I began posting about our New Zealand trip while you were still in hospital. It's probably slipped back on the Watercooler pages now, but I've also got some links there plus my descriptions of where we went and what we did. I'm about halfway through the holiday, spread over two posts, both (I think) with New Zealand in the title. Certainly the first one. The second one began with our trip to the volcanoes, and I was especially looking out for Lord of the Rings locations, with Robby in mind especially. There is some unbelievably beautiful scenery. I'll post more when I can. Hang in there, you're probably going through a really scary patch wondering how much neurological function you'll get back, and when - it will come. It takes longer to come back than it went, because repair takes longer than damage. The myelin sheath takes time to regenerate. It's like cutting an electrical line - it can be spliced, but you have to call a repairman and he has to sit there and hook it back together, solder the joints, etc. It might have only taken a split second to sever it. And in your case, the connections weren't severed, but without the insulation the nerve transmission is slowed 200 times. As it all grows back, you will get the function back. I've seen it before, we studied it at uni too. From where you are now, you can take joy in every little gain, because that gain is yours, permanently. Marg [/QUOTE]
