PHYSICAL THERAPY

When an injury occurs or an operation takes place

You usually need some physical therapy to improve

Recovery and shortening the path to psychologically

Keep you sane.  One is grateful to the person

Helping you and they are very encouraging, prompting

You do your exercises correctly and be aware of

Your posture.  They are also keenly aware that you could

Take a spill so they are always on the alert for the sake of

The recovering patient.  It is a wonderful feeling to

Have a healer who actually cares and is pulling for you

Throughout the process.  So far I have been lucky or

Blessed.  All of my caretakers have been lovely people who

Are diligent and do not deviate from protocol

The Physical Therapy area is part of the addition to the Hospital

They also have a swimming pool for water therapy. 

An infusion center, named for my late bride,

Is also ready.  The rural health clinic has been remodeled

And soon will be ready for the art to be hung. 

This will be a big job and it will be fulfilling for me 

If I am left alone to make the decisions on where

The work is to be hung.  In life, there are usually more Chiefs

Than regular Indians so I must contend with egos and

The need to control.  Everyone has an opinion and not every

Piece of art is appreciated by everyone, although

The majority of the people really like the art and

Many of the pieces came from Santa Fe.  Some of

The artists there donate a few pieces if I but one

Or two.  This has helped our collection and we

Have about three hundred pieces.  It will take some

Time to figure the layout, then the hanging, and

Finally the labeling.  I hope I continue to heal

While proceeding with the Art Project.
