(Jane didn’t call last night. I got there a few minutes early; she’d just been turned by Patty and was hurting a lot. However, she’d had a good night and morning, and had eaten some breakfast. I massaged under her left knee when she asked me to, almost at once, and was pleased to see the motion in her leg, and head and shoulders, return once again. She said she’d reassured herself through the night and morning that it was okay to move, that she trusted her body, and had had some movements.

(She’d had only a small amount of drainage from the knee. She didn’t go to hydro this morning: “You’ve got to be kidding.”

(At lunch time I told her I wanted her to have a session today if at all possible, by way of encouraging her new course.

(Jane’s motions, in the legs especially, were quite startling as I started massaging them with Oil of Olay preparatory to turning her on her side. To my surprise I discovered that as I massaged those tendons underneath the knee, her foot began to move back and forth an inch — something she hasn’t been able to do for months, at least, and proof that the left knee joint wasn’t frozen. I congratulated her. It was also easier doing her arms and hands and other parts of her body after I turned her. And the turning itself went very easily indeed — she didn’t cry at all, and seemed to be at some sort of peace. I told her she’d done well.

(In fact, she continued her motions without my asking her too. Supper didn’t work out, though — after taking a half cup of soup she began to throw up, and lost it all. This upset me, yet Jane didn’t feel bad about it, and I curbed my disappointment.
