I burdened you all with the story of my various surgeries this past year. Then, I mentioned the re-tearing of my quadriceps tendon and its surgical repair just recently. Now there is some decent news. On Tuesday, my orthopedic surgeon released me to start physical therapy again. I had my first session on Thursday.
It seems that I rushed the last physical therapy and moved forward with an exercise regime a little too aggressively. THe recent, partial tear probably came about from my compulsive desire to get back to normal quickly, as if I was 25 years old again. He reminded me that I am no longer 25 or 30, but more like 35 :shock: :twisted: Moderation is the operational word, he said! I responded that if something is worth doing, it is worth doing in excess. But, although I hate to admit it, he is correct. I will take it a little easier this time around. I don't want there to be a third time.
