Here, from today's NY Times, is a piece about a buncha badass guys you would not invite to dinner - and their organized soft-heartedness toward at-risk pets. Please watch the slide show.
I'm walking behind the walker, doing laps of our floor here in the building. I'm doing the exercises suggested by my physical therapist. I get a tiny bit more mobile each day. Thanks as always for your kind thoughts.
Keep walking. 90 percent of a patient's recovery is based on THEIR attitude and choices. After the walker comes . . . crutches. Crutches are awesome, especially when you encounter an angry dog. Dogs do NOT like crutches.
ReplyDeleteThe only problem with being "crutched" is ordering coffee -- you've got no way to carry the cup from the counter to the table. Here's where having nice neighbors helps!
Keep charging ahead -- you'll get there.
Maynard,
ReplyDeleteI met you at City Bike in Cleveland many years ago. We talked about Lance and Greg, bikes and you made me comfortable. Now, let me return the favor. I too had a factured femur nearly 30 years ago. Yes, crutches will be your new leg for now. Crutches will keep you mobile and keep your spirits up. Someday, this will be just a bad memory. Remember, all of your fans, including me, are pulling for you.
