You ever watch one of those shows where one of the characters gets badly injured and there is a montage showing the person working without rest until they recover?
That does not happen in real life. Your body will stop you.
The most I have managed to do over the course of a day is about two thousand feet of walking. I cannot do it every day but I have managed to do it on five very recent occasions. On Friday I managed to add another five hundred feet to that for a total of two thousand five hundred feet for the day. Saturday I woke up to stiff legs and some pain in my knees and hips. I had not experienced hip pain in many weeks. I barely moved all day, I did not want to hurt anything. Sunday forced myself to get moving and doing some walking. There is some discomfort. Staying positive is a struggle some days.
I have not driven a vehicle since I got hit. I have not bought one either. On the plus side I am saving money not having one and the two minor traffic convictions I had in 2021 have dropped off my record and as I am not driving I have not picked up any more violations. I am confident I can drive with no issues, I think I should wait. I will be getting something bigger than my former KIA Soul.
Keep going it will get easier and you will go further.
ReplyDeleteSorry to hear about the hip pain. May it go away soon.
ReplyDeleteKeep the future and the next vehicle in mind as you force your body to relearn how to walk.
ReplyDeleteYou are doing impressive things!
Like many things in life it seems you progress well and then take a step back while your body gets used to the new plateau. Keep on keeping on!
ReplyDeleteGood to hear that your recovery is coming along , best wishes .
ReplyDeleteCheck with your insurance agent to make sure you won't be penalized, either for the accident (which wasn't your fault) nor for not having active policy coverage for a while. I have heard of people who leave Canada for a period of time and even though they had an insured vehicle they used and were accident free, when they came back to Canada and went to get insurance again, they were treated as though they did not have a clean driving record for the last number of years, and had to start over as a 'new' driver.
