Today went out for an off road spin for the first time in Bonnie's modified cart. A few more adjustments are needed but it definitely is a better fit and Carl appeared more stable, easily navigating tree roots and steps.

At Home Rehab and Off Roading
Finally got in the tape measure, NMES unit and additional pads. Started at home rehab last night with core strengthening (side sit ups and reaches), proprioception (rubbing feet on rough surfaces to try to elicit kicking, gently pulling toes to stimulate withdrawal reflex) and strength/balance exercises (gently bouncing on hindlimbs while standing). Finished with EMS to gluteals, quadriceps and hamstrings. Carl did well tolerating an hour long session.
