head, shoulders, knees

and (not) toes. I’m almost done recovering from my moderately severe concussion, my twice-dislocated right shoulder is in fair shape at the moment, and my knees without cartilage make it impossible to run.
The head injury was by far the scariest thing, though my shoulders and knees are going to have a much more long-lasting impact on my life. I’m pretty good about doing my therapy exercises, but I should be more diligent about it. Especially for my knees; I used to love to run, and now it’s just too painful. I take glucosamine pills, but I’m not sure if that stuff really works…I hope it will eventually. Running on the elliptical machine is just not the same as taking a run around the lake.
