July 13th, 2006

Here we are already packing and getting ready for the journey to Qingdao later this morning. It’s a 3 hour flight, and as Amy will accompany us, it shouldnt prove too taxing. So we say our goodbyes to our many new friends here in Shenzhen with a touch of sadness, but also with excitment for the next adventure in Qingdao.

Physically I am doing pretty good I reckon, although I am not dancing around. I am certainly more flexible and experiencing much less pain in my legs and feet. I am able to stand more comfortably for a little longer. Getting in and out of bed, wheelchair etc is easier. It is still early days, with more treatments in Qingdao.

In Qingdao I am not certain if we’ll manage internet connections, so please bear with me while I sort it out.
