This is my second time at Hedla neurohabil. My wife works too much of course and can't be off. It's very nice in southern Spain in the spring. I landed in Malaga in the morning and I'm waiting for a fellow patient, whom I haven't met before. Then we take a taxi to Almuñécar to our hotel. It's about 100 kilometers east on the coast.

Rehabilitation Diary – My Time in Almuñécar I’m now in the first of three weeks at the rehabilitation center. It’s been a great week – the staff here are incredibly kind and professional. On the very first day, I met with a physiotherapist, a doctor, and a speech therapist.

I still have some difficulties with speech, which is why I work daily with a speech therapist. I've had up to five speech therapy sessions per day, and two physiotherapy sessions. By the evening, I’m completely exhausted. Last weekend, Ole and I took the bus to Almuñécar. At one point we split up – Ingrid and I were curious about the town’s history, while Ole wanted to enjoy some birdwatching and relax at a café. We decided to walk along the coastline instead of waiting for a delayed bus…
