The plan

 Physical therapy is testing me in ways I imagined, and in ways I didn’t. I anticipated the physical toil. I didn’t anticipate how much. I’m worn out each and every time. PT is followed by nap time. Endurance is what I need, I just don’t know how long it will take me not to be so exhausted by it. This is not the biggest adjustment. 

My mental health is undergoing an overhaul. Gratitude mixes with frustration way too often. Grateful for an opportunity to get better, yet a frustration that my body deteriorated so badly that I don’t know when it will return. 

And I started OT today too. 

Do what 

You do

Even as

I continue

Not to 

Understand

The plan

Joy

 Will be giving a PT update soon. 

Some wins

Inside out

All of me

Is with

All of You

Hands

 Calm my 

Anxious heart

Soften me

To your wisdom

And leave

My cares

In your 

Willing Hands

Adventure

 Dreaming about 

A Cortina peak

Covered in snow

As I enjoy

An aperitif

At the foot

Of the Dolomites

Staying sane

Is of utmost importance 

These days

And my soul rejoices

In simple pleasures

Until my body

Is ready for

A dreamy adventure
