Accomplishment
I bought myself a pedometer the other day and was very happy to see the dogs
and I are doing a little over two miles a day. So far, so good, I am happy to report. I still try to add a little distance to our walks, so I guess my next goal will be to see if we can do three miles. td |

Honestly, who is it that you think cares about your mundane "accomplishments"? I'm still waiting for you to point out the house with the scary dog. And the trees it's tied to. Where are they? http://tinyurl.com/23u5zh |

"diddy" none wrote in message . .. snipped Since TD has been often accused of not doing anything with her dogs, I think her post was significant in proof otherwise to those accusations. Thanks diddy! I'm just happy the dire predictions of that PT didn't hold true. Haven't been back for any more MRI's or x-rays, why court trouble is my way of thinking. td |

Thanks diddy! The word "proof" appears to mean something different in other corners of the universe. In other news, I won the lottery! ^ | See? I posted about it, which proves it's true! I think it's obviously a good thing if you're really getting more exercise, but 2 miles/day of walking really isn't enough exercise for a medium-sized dog. I'm just happy the dire predictions of that PT didn't hold true. Haven't been back for any more MRI's or x-rays, why court trouble is my way of thinking. Yeah! If I'd just spent the last n months completely disabled by back problems, I'd *totally* try to ignore the question of how I'm recovering!!! After all, it's just too much trouble to try to forestall a relapse - it's *way* easier to spend another n months disabled again!!!!

I'm glad your back is allowing you some more movement! Thanks Beth. I try to remain conscious of it, distinguish sharp pain, or any pain that moves down my leg. I was a bit discouraged early on, as it took awhile to build up my stamina. I finally feel back to where I was last year before the ruptured discs. How's Pirate coming along? td |

Td said in part....
I bought myself a pedometer the other day and was very happy to see the dogs and I are up to almost 2 miles a day... ____________________ Td You go girl!!! A pedometer brings up a funny Christmas memory. My daughter's boyfriend bought her sister (my other daughter) a pedometer for Christmas. The recipient was slightly overweght at the time. Let's just say it set off a lot of tittering. Like WTF is he trying to say? Be Free.....Judy |

Was there something in td's post that proved that's the only exercise the dogs are getting? Yeah! If I'd just spent the last n months completely disabled by back problems, I'd *totally* try to ignore the question of how I'm recovering!!! After all, it's just too much trouble to try to forestall a relapse - it's *way* easier to spend another n months disabled again!!!! Yer a pip, tiny. The fact that they're no longer causing pain proves that they are *healing.* Ruptured disks don't always require surgery; they can heal. An x-ray or MRI won't prove *how* precisely her actions affected their healing, nor will it *prove* what precisely caused them to rupture in the first place, unless td has a structural abnormality at that location that stressed them too much, say a spondylolysis or spondylolisthesis. The x-ray or MRI won't show what particular thing she did during her recovery that may have helped or hindered the healing process. As for forestalling a relapse, I'm sure her doctor has given her a number of great pointers. Go back to medical school, moron. flick 100785 -- Melinda Shore - Software longa, hardware brevis - Prouder than ever to be a member of the reality-based community |
