I CAN WATCH IN THE MIRROR AND SEE UNDER MY EYE WIGGLING. THE MUSCLE CONTRACT THEN LET GO. I DON'T HAVE MY BLINK BACK YET. DO YOU THINK THE EYE MUSCLE IS WAKING UP OR WHAT IS THIS?

See if you can consciously make it move.  That was the very first (of two, to date) muscle movements I have gotten back.  Try making that muscle under your eye on your good  side move - then try the same thing on your AN side.  My neuro said that it is very important to focus on the very tiny movements and to work on doing them.

YAY!  Hopefully this is a first step!!  Let us know how you do!

Debbi, with you on the one muscle at a time journey
