Its Friday 4th April which means today I’m finally off to Miami. I’m so excited but also a little bit nervous as I’m not just heading to the sunshine state for leisure but each week day I’m attending the Brucker Biofeedback Centre for a treatment. The treatment sessions last around an hour each and basically it is to monitor how much of a signal from my brain is reaching my muscles. Its really difficult for me to explain because I’m not 100% sure what it completely involves but I will definitely let you all know how I get on. I’m a C6 quadriplegic which means I am paralysed from the chest down so even if there is a flicker of muscle movement whilst doing this treatment it will be worthwhile because I can then give my results to my physio who can work with me to make the muscle/muscles stronger. I’ve been told its quite mentally draining so I’m thinking lounging by the pool or beach will be great in the afternoon – perhaps with a cocktail in hand.
Mike & I have booked tickets to see Miami Heat whilst we’re there so that should be a fun experience! I’m also looking forward to going shopping, going to bars, eating like a piggy and simply just being somewhere as glamorous as Miami! Have you been to Miami? If so, where do you recommend going?
I won’t be blogging while I’m away so this is my last post until I’m back. I’m thinking of vlogging my trip so hopefully I get some good footage for a YouTube video. However, you can come keep in touch with me via Instagram @Jbone89 and Twitter @JordanBone1
So, see you in 2 weeks loves I’m off to Heathrow now to catch my flight! Xx
Good luck with your treatments, I hope you hear good news at the end 🙂 I hope you’ll enjoy all of your leisure time while your there too! xo

Hi, enjoyed your blog. i wam considering taking a love done to the Brucker center and i was wondering if where you stayed was close to the center or if you noted any hotels close by. The person i’m taking does not want to use a wheelchair and can only walk short distances with a cane. can you advise?

Hello, I stayed in an apartment which was about a 20 minute or so drive away…The actual area of the hospital isn’t the nicest so you would probably have to drive there. The apartment I stayed in was in Surfside!
