Physical Terrorist


That's what my brother calls PT.  

 During physical therapy yesterday, there was a man having some kind of horrible therapy on his shoulder.   Seriously, this therapist got his training at a torture camp.  I've never seen any sort of physical therapy like it......the man's arm was contorted in various positions and the moans and heavy breathing was hard to listen to as I was on the table next to him.  I quietly asked my therapist to make sure that therapist never worked with me....EVER.  His therapy ended before mine and as he got off the table, I couldn't resist asking if he was taking the baby home with him.  That's how he sounded, just like a woman in labor.  I was even doing the breathing for him.  Then he stretched and said.....

much better!

I've heard horror stories about PT, but usually people say it is "worth it". Hope you're doing well - and not going through anything as painful as "labor".

My hubby always called them "physical terrorists".

Gosh, I'm glad it helped him! I was a little worried he needed to call 911. Some people have to do that from hospital rooms at times I've heard.
I hope yours is going well.

Sounds like torture! But I'm glad it made him feel better. Not so nice for you, tho, to have to listen in. Hope you are okay.

Ouch ... that hurt just to read about it. ;-)

Hope your PT is helping.

That sounds just too painful....best keep that PT in the back room, or better yet....off the payroll!
