Freedom

Teaching My Leg the Skill of Walking

Thank you all for praying me through my last day!  I received the green light to resume activity as tolerated sans any marathon running or skiing.  I think I can do that. smile My leg and ankle has, of course, forgotten how to walk, but I am putting it through the training (yes, gentle) to get it working again.  Here I am . . .

Oldham Adventures

A Journey Begins

Apparently, we don’t have enough going on this summer, so we have to end it with a new adventure.  :-)

I had an annoying mole removed from my ankle (my primary doctor initially thought it was a bug bite or age spot and didn’t think insurance would pay for the removal).  The biopsy came back as a very early stage . . .
