The Ups and Downs

I've realized that I've pre-written a number of blog posts in my head, but never actually committed any of them into blog form. Just like rehab, I suppose that blogging has it's ups and downs too.

Here are some short snippets of the never realized blog posts and what they were supposed to be about:

Final Countdown
-- About 3 weeks ago, I had my doctor's follow up early in the morning. A very bad idea, as when I got measured in terms of range of motion, I did terribly. I basically received the final warning that without additional progress, I was going to go under the knife again to get scar tissue broken up. This was supposed to be reflection on that.

Turning the Corner
-- I can't quite put a finger on it, but shortly after the final warning, we took a significant step forward. One different thing that we added was an assisted stretch using the wall. The biggest change was being able to tolerate on the stomach knee stretches, and even Graston with minimal bruising. This was supposed to contain all of the fun details.

Grace
-- I have always felt that certain events happen to give you a chance to see things in a different way. (Much like the point of the Nic Cage movie, "Family Man".) In a lot of ways, having this knee injury and the rehab process involved has certainly changed my perspective in a lot of ways, in addition to giving me the chance to meet and get to know people I wouldn't have met otherwise. I still might right out this post.
