One week in rehabilitation center of Jaunkemeri

Few weeks ago rumor was spread in our office rooms. Starting from New Year there will not be available health insurance anymore. Just a month was remained till New Year and of course like as everyone as I wanted to take advantage of bonuses that is left available. I make a registration to dentist and orthopedist with an idea to get assignment to rehabilitation center of Jaunkemeri. Our health insurance provides 150 lats limit of concrete measures of rehabilitation. I was lucky with orthopedist. He was nice fellow and sign assignment without the questions. After a several more formalities with insurance company I was on my way to Jūrmala ready to different health improving procedures.
Rehabilitation continues 6 days and now is annual evening when I play video game, read book, watch TV, write something in English or do something else. Here is no internet and I am forced to write in simple MS word document. To be more exact here is an internet but it is available only near registration area on two very slow looking PC’s and price is just awful – 2 lats per hour.
After checking here in Jaunkemeri I should visited two more doctors to establish my diagnose. Actually I am not too ill as it seems, I only have small injury in bottom of my legs. Different procedures had set up for me, for example mud applications, swimming pool, magnet therapy, gymnastic, fitness, sulphureted bathtubs, underwater massage, which was charged procedure and I have to pay additional 10 lats for it. Procedures is very enjoyable, and I certainly feel much better.
Feed here is for free, breakfast, dinner and supper, but portions is too small for me, luckily one of my coworker after procedures go home to Riga often in the afternoon and then she go back in next morning to procedures. We sit at one kitchen table so her portion then goes to me . Every resident here live in double rooms, I don’t know maybe few single rooms is available but they wasn’t offer to me. I live with guy named Jurijs. I am talking with him in Russian and he lived and worked in Norway last 3 or 4 years and came to Latvia to treat his hand. Jurijs is big chatterbox. Mainly he talks about his life and work in Norway, how he lost his job there, about Norway’s and Finland’s nature. He showed me thousands of pictures of Norway’s nature and his exjob area. He even demonstrated PC software for me, which is used in his exjob. Software is about how to model different components of steal. He often talks about how bad is here in Latvia and how good is there in Norway or Finland. I notice that is recently quite popular subject between many peoples.
Only 2 days left here in Jaunķemeri for me. Ice hockey game Latvia vs Denmark will show by TV in this evening. TV set here is much smaller than my previous one in old flat, so it will be difficult to spot something. Maybe I change my mind and will go and play with another’s coworkers some card game in the opposite room. During those days here in Jaunkemeri there was a lot of snow fallen. Finally! Definitely I will be on skies this Saturday and rushing around skiing track of Torņakalns.
