My thoughts are with you. As for...Loss is a bugger. My thoughts are with you. As for trees, they're nice but not suited to the local environment. I love my own trees and take some pride in their existence, but they don't really belong here.<br /><br />One of the things driving my fitness quest is the realization that I'm remarkably blessed with good health while so many are not. I know a lot of folks who would give anything to do what I'm doing but cannot. It seems a bit rotten for me to squander the gift I've received while others can only dream of health.<br /><br />I used that finite heartbeat line on a physician Marathoner one time. His resting pulse was half of mine, and he pointed out that it was probably too late for me to catch up.<br /><br />Strength and agility prevents falls and mitigates the effect of falls. Once again I am blessed, and in my mind, regaining and maintaining strength and agility makes sense. Something will get me in the end, but perhaps it won't be a fall.<br /><br />Hang in there and treasure what you've got. There are always others among the living who are worse off, and when the living is done we're all in the same, er, boat.PrairieAdventurehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06466447251827774900noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-771208131691936867.post-32434210486876401832018-11-25T11:49:07.819-07:002018-11-25T11:49:07.819-07:00It's a gamble.

It's not like the Aleutians, real trees do grown on the Great Plains. Mortality called here today from Latrobe, PA. The winds of eternity are gathering close to one there and it hurts. I am back to walking which is good, for different values of good. I get hit with plantars fascitis in one foot and then the next and then all the muscles in one leg go into full spasm and lock for a couple of days. Wondering, is it diet? Exercise? Allergy? Walking barefoot in the house way into the cold of winter without a care since I can't really feel my feet all that much anyway?<br />I know you're medically trained and all but your physical regime is damaging to my own medical philosophy that one only gets so many heartbeats in this life and the best way to draw that out is the comfy chair.<br />The pictures of the stair were interesting. Very familiar looking except for the carpet at the bottom. When I was housesitting for a year I fell down a set of stairs exactly like that time after timie. Neuropathy does terrible things to balance and stairwells. I had to literally clean the blood off the walls near the bottom before my sister and her family got home from a year abroad.<br />Best wishes for a full recovery for your dad and for you.HMS Defianthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10024721130102173694noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-771208131691936867.post-34986403448582562002018-11-24T19:56:40.669-07:002018-11-24T19:56:40.669-07:00Thanks John.
