Slow Down

This makes me smile.  Just over a year ago, I was the slowest member of our family.  Everyone walked at a snail's pace so that they wouldn't pass me by and we could walk together.  I know it was hard for everyone and I love them for willingly staying with me. Over the weekend my husband joined my border collie and I on our walk but first asked, "Are you going to walk with me?"  He asked that because now that I am in remission (I am not sure if I am technically in remission, but I feel like I am.),  Izzy and I walk at a very fast pace and I forget to slow down when Steve is walking with us.  I love that I am now being asked to slow down my walking.  I seriously never thought this day would come.

    Thanks so much Squirrel, Debbie, and Deb for rejoicing in this victory with me. It feels so good to be on the other side of pain.

    What an amazing post! You know me, I'm a big fan of the little things that keep us positive! I never thought I'd be able to move as quickly and as pain-free as I have recently, so I'm right there with ya! It's surprising and amazing and crazy all at the same time. Congrats on feeling SO GOOD!
