Sam said that he talks like Sylvester Stallone!
It's funny isn't it, how close we can become through this diagnosis? We bond, feel the same shock and pain and we hold each other up and yet we wouldn't know each other if we met on the street. I think it's wonderful. Now, let's celebrate. It's a great day in the neighborhood...Holly
I’ve been walking around the neighborhood. I started last Thursday, 2 week post-op date, with 1 mile. I walked 2.5 miles this morning. Didn’t set any land speed records, but it felt great. The undulations in the pavement feel so extreme. Walking is good practice and is helping with that sensation.
I am supposed to go back to work next Monday. I think I’m ready for it. I emailed my Dr. Bartels today for a go-back-to-work note. I am awaiting his response. I have a desk job, so it shouldn’t be a problem. I think I can do it, but don’t know until I try. Part of me desperately wants to get back to some normalcy.
