Movement

For over a year, I depended on pills and whatever my dr recommended. I got tired of spending my days slowly deteriorating hopelessly. Saw some videos of people with ms in You Tube of how they spent their days in pain.

I had also seen videos of people recovering from spinal cord injury and how they give their all to walk again.

I could lay in despair depressed about my future or I could give my all.

I decided for the second option.

Funny thing, I just wanted to maintain muscle mass, I never expected to recover so much.

From I could barely walk, im now walking like a kid in their first steps. Im afraid, afraid of letting go of my aids and falling. My daughter holds my hand just like I did for her when she started walking. Im practicing with walking sticks.

Have to regain my confidence and trust myself again.

The days that she notices I haven't exercise, she tells me, get on those pedals! I do.

I know I still have a lot to recover, but everyday im a grain of salt closer to my old self.

During that first year if someone had pushed me to exercise, I wouldn't had been pretty,,, lol. Now im putting myself at risk by telling many,,,, look at me!

I cant work due to all the problems but I decided, I am my job.

Be well, Alma
