Small Victories!

mdehnersToday makes one month that I haven't needed to use the shower seat to wash. A couple of yrs ago it got too painful to stand for more than a couple minutes so we got a shower seat.
Last month I tried to "soldier on" since I was doing so much better since the surgery. Since I was no longer using the walker and was back to my old cane I decided to try.
I won't say it's been easy. Even today I was tempted to use it(I overdid it lifting the last dormant plant out of the shed...) but DIDN'T.
Little steps, little victories.
As a nice plus my md appt today was held by phone, so I didn't have to drive to FWB and sit in the waiting room of the county health dept....not the most healthy spot in an epidemic. Also, my labs were great! High normal t-cell count and my A1C was the lowest since I developed Diabetes. And that's with 4 Units less a day since the surgery....
Cheers,
Pat
PS: The reusable cloth masks I'd ordered in early March finally arrived as well;>
