Okay this
is the best advice you’re going to get, but most will tell you I’m crazier as a
loon. Ready?! Attack you goal with reckless baby step abandon. Push yourself to
the point of exhaustion, rest, and do it again.
When I
finished chemo I could only walked to stop sign about 200 yards from my house
and back, but I forced myself to keep at it. Soon I was at the stop sign plus
the trashcan and back. A bit later I passed the stop sign to the basketball
court and turned down the street to the dog that runs back and forth behind the
fence. And on it went.
I had to
overcome the neuropathy (avoid really hard floor at big box stores or anyplace
with a purse department with no chairs), fatigue, bad shoes, bad weather; so
will you. After gutting it out for a couple of months I was able to trek ALL
the way around the block. I felt like Marco Polo returning to Europe forms the
Silk Road.
Having
accomplished that task I moved onto the bicycle. Well, we’ll talk about that
later.
What you
need to do now is attack! Attack! Attack!
Har! Purse department. He He!
