was there something you did that you were surprised you were capable of doing.?

today i ran a 17:32 5k on the treadmill with a stuffed up nose. i thought i was going to pass out at the end from lack of oxygen.. so glad its over. trying to get ready for a race in 2 weeks with a cold isnt fun.

good for you, Owlie!

and Yes, when i got the use of my arms back, when i lost them(not literally lost them, but the function of them as well as that of my hands), i wanted to DIE, i was done, and i was basically just like "fuck everything" but when i kept going and started making progress and started being able to do things again, it's amazing now i can type, and write, comb my hair all this stuff, and couple years ago, i couldn't even lift my own hand to scratch my own nose. Human bodies are awesome as fuck.💖

@DancingStarGoddess: you had spine injury?

@theowl: no, i just get Caudal epidurals and some other stuff every so often shoulder injections so my right arm functions betters, LOT of physical therapy, then and still, now water therapy, because of the pain from my pelvic break, but it's all a lot better now than then. was a lot more painful then. once i hit 30 my body just went crazy, changed the way i saw and did everything man. changed me a lot. it's amazing how much humanity you can find in yourself when you lose everything and have to fight to get "you" back. 4 years and counting, i'm not done yet, but getting there.
