thanks Kate..
neck is improving each day, but the arm/hand not so good. the pain/pins and needles have got more intense, but i'm hoping that's cause more blood flowing in and soon should be normal. meet plastic surgeon tomorrow so will ask about finding me a physio to help out.

against better judgement played about 6 or 7 minutes of indoor soccer a few nights ago. manage not to get bumped on hand or neck...and was stoked to do something other than watch tele!!

hope everyone is well
