Little Bear, how true your thoughts! It is wonderful to read your writing. It is all in our perspective whether it is easy time or difficult time. It is so true. Not just physical but also emotional and mental. I felt somewhat the same last year when i hurt my shoulder. I could not use my right arm. I could not go skiing for fear I can hurt it again until late in the season when I would go back to beginner's slopes. Even have to play table tennis with my left hand. It took until this summer to have my arm's full use back. However I learned to be much more compassionate becuase of the disability during that period. I am sure you will recover soon and tell your leg that you love it and want ti get better soon and that you wil regain the full use lor better than before. believe in it because placebo effect is very strong. Our mind is a very powerful thing. My best regards and keep on trucking! Keep on writing!
