"Rubbery" Legs?

Good morning! (@efgh1020)
Ah, yes: a lot of adjustment! That's so true. But I believe –– as I suspect you do, too, from what you say –– that adjustment is the key to success. I found when I first realized that my neuropathy was not something that was simply going to go away ("take two pills and you will feel fine in the morning") that adjusting was hard, even the fairly minor adjustment of carrying a cane. I balked about even having to carry a cane, and for the longest time, if I even bothered to bring it with me, I'd carry it under my arm like a riding crop. When I think about that now, I laugh. How foolish I was! It has taken time, but now I am a great believer in being honest about myself and that includes taking my cane with me everywhere –– and using it like a cane and not like a riding crop! LOL Your message is a tremendous endorsement to all of us to keep working at what helps, adjusting when necessary, and holding positive thoughts about what can yet be achieved. Thank you for posting today!
Best wishes,
Ray (@ray666)

Thank you for this post. Acceptance is hard! Adjustment comes along easier after that. I’m glad you are now letting your cane do some of the walking with you.
