Mr. Lewis has worked day and night for two days to get my seat set and to get Mark a switch he can use (without needing his hands or fingers) to independently tilt his seat. I am not going anywhere in the seat this time. Check out the final picture and note the red strap around my waist (it was one of the straps the NHS folks gave me). I just hope if and when I do need to get myself out, I can!
Mark's father came up with a way for him to use his head to activate the switch to make his seat tilt. I have to take a picture of it--it is very imaginative. The next step for both of us is to put the boat in the water and see how our new modifications work! Tomorrow morning we move out and head out for Newport, R.I. We will get the boat in and test out the equipment. If things seem to be in working we will join the other US team boats for the first day of practice.
Until tomorrow...It's time for bed. Thanks for all your support.
