Go-Go Juice - Day 4 in Costa Rica


Today Joey was scheduled for his first injection of go-go juice (stem cells).

Joey had a rough night last night. He didn't sleep well, which means I didn't sleep well. He then continued to be fussy all day.

At 9am he started with his ABM session which lasted an hour. I have already seen changes in Joey with just the 2 sessions he has had. Joey's body is normally in extension (meaning every inch is extended). Since the 2 ABM sessions, Joey is bringing himself into flexion more. For Joey this is a great thing.

Joey, Brock's Daddy Al and I ventured to the market when Joey was done with his session. It is about 1/4 mile away. The markets here are just the same as the ones in the states. Then back to the hotel to gather the rest of the gang and off to lunch at Rosti Pollo. After lunch we headed to the ICM cl
inic for his 1st injection of go-go juice. First it was Makenzies turn, then Brock and then Joey. Joey moved so much, we had to lay him down on the table and I had to lay across his body to hold him still. He continued to be fussy the rest of the day. I changed 4 poopy diapers and he finally calmed down around 6p. We hung outside with our friends until bedtime.

Joey, Makenzie and Brock parked in Handicap parking.

Tomorrow will be the same schedule as today, but hopefully not with a fussy kid.

Time for be, I am exhausted.
