[ To The Best Physical Therapist Who Gave Me Such Good Care ]
[ When I Came To Therapeutic Associates For Repair ]
[ I Did Not Know Who Would Take On This Monumental
Task ]
[ & I Never Called Ahead To Ask ]
[ The First Time That I Met You Here ]
[ You Were Full Of Cheer ]
[ You Are Tiny, Yet Strong ]
[ Throw Out All Of Those Misconceptions ]
[ Because They Were All Wrong ]
[ You Maneuvered Me Here, Then There ]
[ I Used To Do Rubberband Pull-Downs ]
[ With You Standing On A Chair ]
[ I Was Hoping That I Wouldn’t Pull You Down ]
[ But You Stood Your Ground ]
[ Well We Come To The End Of Another Body Part ]
[ But When You Come Back @ The End Of January ]
[ We Will Make A Brand New Start ]
[ Everything Will Be Brand New ]
[ For You ]
[ Because In October, You Will Have Child (#2) ]
[ You Have Done So Much In What Seems Like So
Little Time ]
[ I Have No Idea What I Pay This Place ]
[ But YOU Are Worth Every Dime ]
[ Could You Let Me Know In Some Way ]
[ The Result Of Your Big Day? ]
[ Calling My Cell ]
[ To See If I Am Doing Well ]
[ Because I Was Far In-Between Visits ]
[ & You Were Being Inquisitive ]
[ That Is Just The Type Of P.T. That You Are ]
[ In An Agency Full Of P.T.’s ]
[ You Are The Rock Star ]
[ You Have Been Working On Me For Over A Year & Then
Some ]
[ Through All Of The P.T.’s That I Have Had Prior ]
[ Kirsten, You Are The Number (1) ]
[ Never Forget That, Please ]
[ See You When You Return ]

(291)▪︎[ Kirsten & Cassidy … 4•6•2021 ]
[ Kirsten & Cassidy Make Quite The Pair ]
[ It Was A Nice Surprise ]
[ When I Got To Meet Cassidy When I Was There ]
[ Cassidy Came From Ohio ]
[ So Nicole & I Were More Than Happy To Greet
Her With A Warm Hello ]
[ I Am Sure That Everyone Feels That The Part Of The Country
That They Currently Reside In, Is The Best ]
[ But I Will Still Ask ]
[ How Do You Like Being In The Great Pacific Northwest? ]
[ How Did You Pick Our Itty ]
[ Bitty ]
[ … City? ]
[ When You Were Assigned To Kirsten To Shadow ]
[ You Will See That She Is The Best There Is ]
[ Because I Have Yet To Ask Her A Question Concerning My P.T.
That She Did Not Know ]
[ Kirsten Might Be Slender In Stature, But She Packs Alot Of
Power ]
[ She Doesn’t Ever Need A Rest @ The End Of The Hour ]
[ I Always Come To See Kirsten When My Body Is A Wreck ]
[ Right Now It Is My Foot, Back & Neck ]
[ I Haven’t Yet ]
[ & She Has Never Let ]
[ For Me To Ask Her To Cut Me Some Slack ]
[ Why Should I? ]
[ Because She Does Amazing Work On My Back ]
[ I Just Write Whatever Comes To My Mind ]
[ & I Write About People Who I Find ]
[ Are Really Kind ]
[ Even Before My Surgery The Subject Of P.T. Was Talked About
Really Nice ]
[ Before I Was Asked Where? ]
[ I Did Not Have To Think Of The Answer Twice ]
[ Kirsten Isn’t Done With Me Until I Feel Better ]
[ When I Look Back Over The Last Couple Of Years ]
[ I Am Always Thankful That I Met Her ]
[ I Actually Have A Hard Time With The Whole Premise Of Fate ]
[ & Sending Me To The Best Was Not A Mistake ]
[ I Could Compliment This Wonderful Therapist Until I Was Blue In
The Face ]
[ But This Is Not The Time Or The Place ]
[ I Was Very Impressed With Something That You Did Cassidy ]
[ This Was Something That I Don’t Usually See ]
[ It Wasn’t The Whole Time That Your Face Was Making A
Statement ]
[ Of Acknowledgement ]
[ It Was How You Approached The Table & You ]
[ Knew ]
[ What To Do ]
[ Today I Felt & Could See ]
[ That You Were NOT Just An Observer ]
[ I Had 2 Very Qualified Physical Therapists Helping Me ]
[ To Get To A Place That Time Forgot ]
[ That Is A Time & Day Where I Could Go Through A Whole Day …
OF Being Pain Free! ]
[ From The Bottom Of My Heart … I Say Thank You ]
[ Those Two Very Important Words ]
[ Are Always Way Over Due ]
~ The End ~

(531)▪︎[ What A Great Physical Therapist … 7•1•2021 ]
[ Kirsten, What Can I Say, That Hasn’t Already Been Said ]
[ Your Physical Therapy Sessions ]
[ Work So Much Better, Than Any Med ]
[ That Can Ever Be Prescribed ]
[ What You Do For Me Just Cannot Be Described ]
[ You Have Told Me To Refrain ]
[ From Concentrating On The Pain ]
[ Well Let Me Tell You Something About My Life ]
[ I Don’t Have Much Going On ]
[ Besides A Few Friends, The Pain & My Wife ]
[ I Have NEVER Had A Physical Therapist Call To Check Up
On Me ]
[ @ Home ]
[ No Other Physical Therapist Ever Wanted To See ]
[ What They Didn’t Know ]
[ How Things Were Going Since Our Last Time? ]
[ No One Ever Wanted To Drop A Dime ]
[ & None Of Those In My Past ]
[ Deserves A Story For Them That Rhymes ]
[ Whenever Someone Brings Up P.T. I Give Them A Small Clue ]
[ About Where To Go ]
[ I Try To Send Business Towards You ]
[ That Is One Bit Of Information I Feel That They Should Know ]
[ I Tried To Tell Your Boss Today When He Was Leaving &
We Were Waiting For The Elevator ]
[ He Seemed Annoyed ]
[ He Acted Like I Was Such The Bother ]
[ But I Said What I Wanted To Say ]
[ He Seemed Very Bothered In The Worst Way ]
[ Everything You Have Me Do On My Own ]
[ @ Home ]
[ I Have Never Tried Before ]
[ I Know That You Are Trying To Make It Easier For Me To
Be Able To Walk ]
[ Without Collapsing To The Floor ]
[ You Pull My Right Leg To Go Over There ]
[ & You Do It With So Much Care ]
[ I Like How You Explain Things To Whomever Is Your
Shadow ]
[ I Think You Make It So Easy To Get To Know ]
[ You Would Be Such The Greatest Instructor ]
[ Or Teacher ]
[ A Good Instructor/ Coach Never Instructs Their Students
To Do Something That They Themselves Would Not Do ]
[ They Would Learn Things That They Would Do, Too ]
[ Now You Have Another Child On The Way ]
[ I Know You & Your Husband Are Excited About That Day ]
[ Your Son Will Have A New Sister Or Brother ]
[ I Hope They Grow Up To Be The Best In Their Job ]
[ Like Their Mother ]
[ I Am Still Amazed About How Strong You Are ]
[ When I Think About All Of The Wonderful People
In Your Agency ]
[ I Will Always Say That You Are The Brightest Star ]
[ If Ever There Was A Contest To Say Who Is The Best
& I Had A Vote ]
[ I Would Put Your Name In Capital Letters ]
[ Because Kirsten, You Are The G.O.A.T. ]
[ I Thank YOU For Being YOU! ]

[ Is That Demand Met ]
[ With Tears On The Floor? ]

[ Knowing That You Wouldn’t Do This ]
[ For Just Anyone Else ]
[ Because You Know That Kirsten Knows What’s Best ]
[ So You Always Want To Beat Every Test ]
[ She Will Always Let You Rest ]
[ A Minute Or Two ]
[ & Then Kirsten Will Once Again ]
[ Let You Know What You Need To Do ]
[ She Is So Good @ Breaking Things Down So You Can ]
[ Understand ]
[ She Is Always Your Biggest Fan ]
[ Kirsten Does Not Criticize ]
