Jo did have some neuropathic pain this evening, although she may have forgotten to take her evening Gabapentin, which she is self-administering from her lunchtime dose. Despite this she was able to raise her torso enough to pull her own trousers down. She is generally getting better at moving herself about, which is partly due to her attitude but also to an increase in awareness and corresponding ability of her left side.
I read an interesting article by Dr Masud Husain, from the Institute of Cognitive Neuroscience, University College, London, in which he says, "A key question is whether conscious intentions are an immediate consequence of preparation for action, or a retrospective mental justification to explain actions we have just made." Cogito ergo sum. Am I a person dreaming of a being a butterfly, or a butterfly dreaming of being a person?
