Cast Off Day It's been five years to the day that my cast was taken off after the long odyssey of tearing my achilles and having to undergo surgery.  Even though the details are becoming more vague in my memory, I think the experience really changed my life by becoming a line of demarcation between being "young" and being "old" in physical terms. It's a reminder to be happy that I can walk, fetch my own groceries, drive with my right foot, and experience life without asprin every two hours.  It's a reminder that health problems are much worse than job, people, or life stress because the problem is inside of you.  It's a reminder to be kind to the people I know that have an uncooperative body - the best relief in times like that for me were people who sympathized and helped. posted in [home], [snippets] 12:30:35 PM    comment []
