Five Minute Friday-Pass

This too shall pass, that thought kept running through my mind, as I spent time in rehab after my stroke, and after my heart attack. Each day, I grew a little bit stronger. Both times in rehab, I had to learn to walk again. I started out in a wheelchair, then to a walker, and then a cane. Did not do very well with the cane, so both times, when I came home from rehab, I was using a walker. I am now walking on my own two legs, no walker. It is far from easy, with my two totally numb feet, caused from diabetic neuropathy.  But, I refuse to give up. This too, shall pass!!

    I say that a lot myself, "this too, shall pass". Although, I've gone through nothing compared to you. I just realized that you live in Chattanooga....only about 2 hours from us!!! We live in Strawberry Plains, about 15 miles east of Knoxville! Small world!

    I'm sorry that you can't feel your feet. David can't feel his either. It makes standing and walking very difficult and injuries much easier.

    You're in my prayers! Have a blessed day.

    Good for you ! You are a very positive and persistent person. I use that phrase 'This too shall pass' often.

    I understand. I have "the equivalent to diabetic neuropathy, according to Mayo Clinic. No feeling in my feet; and I fall a lot. It sounds like you are doing well...keep going.

    It takes so much courage to learn things over and to still have enough fight left in you to do it again! I think you are amazing and that determination is what will keep you going to the very end! HUGS <3
