Claude Monet.
Just got the call we have been waiting for a month now, finally I have an appointment for Thursday 29 October at 3 pm.
Everyone who was here for the first appointment on 17 September will be here again then, Michelle, Harm from Welzorg, Elwin, from Summit, Ludwine and of course Richie and I.
The newly made seat and back rest will be attached to my chair and I will be sat in it so Elwin can adjust it if that is needed.
Ludwine, the ergo therapist from the RCA (Rehabilitation Clinic Amsterdam) will be here to check everything that Elwin does and to make sure that my posture is correct and the seat provides me with the support that I need.
I will then keep the chair so that I have the opportunity to use it, to test drive it for awhile, then Elwin and Ludwine will be around again to check if there are any issues, anything that needs adjusting.
Really hoping that all goes well and that it will be enough time for me to get used to sitting for long enough by the time 21 November comes so that I can go to the Punk gig and see Peter and The Test Tube Babies.
Have to be able to sit for at least three hours by then without any red marks appearing on my bum.
We know that 45 minutes had no effect, so here is hoping that 3 hours sitting is possible by the 21st November.
Really hoping we can still go to the gig.
Yippee the sun is shining and when the clouds go by there are the blue skies again.
What a wonderful phone call that was from Michelle just now.
Happy Days are really here again and now I am looking forward to going out in November.

It is amazing for burocrats to move so fast.
Hi Steve,
It is wonderful, we both can hardly believe it ourselves.
Thanks for coming by and sharing this good moment.
Amazing that suddenly it is all agreed and will be ready to fit to my w/chair on the 29 October.
It has been a long 14 months, thanks for your support through it all.
Love,
Herrad

Hi Jan,
Thanks for coming by.
It is brilliant that suddenly there is good news and I will be getting the chair adaptation soon.
Love,
Herrad
ps can hardly believe it.
I have just a few minutes before I have to go to a meeting, first the store to buy the snacks!, so I have to get moving because as you know, everything takes longer than I expect it to. BUT I just had to check in to see, and WHAT GREAT NEWS!!!! I am so happy for you both. Now when you are sitting, just remember to shift your weight around whenever you think about it. It will act like your APP Mattress and help prevent pressure sores from forming. (At least that's what my PT told me when I used a w/c full time). The 29th will be here before you know it! I AM SSOOOOO HAPPY! I am smiling across the continent and the ocean at you.
It's now close to twenty to four. Am awake since nine this morning and spend many hours with lessons and kids not doing their homework, wondering what this may be all about, only to arrive at your site and to find that wonderful news, and the answer, that it is simply life and such happy moments as this one.
All the very best for you all ! Learned today, that it makes one glad to see other happy, thank you.
Herrad,
HOORAY!
I will celebrate with you, my friend.
Autumn where the leaves fall and the winter looms, brings to us a mighty brilliant Spring, my friend.
HUGS
