Good morning, Pat (@paktoledo)

Travel! That's been No. 1 or 2 on my New Year's Resolutions list every Jan. 1st. With my PN, I'll have to move travel down a few rungs for 2024. If I let my guard down, I'll begin to feel cheated: how I'd waited all these years to travel, and now that I'm retired (or at least semi-retired and working from home), I have the time and a little saved to do all that travel I've been dreaming of doing, but along came PN! However, I don't let my guard down; I take things in stride (fortunately, I've always been that way). I will travel again, although I may need to make certain accommodations.

I applaud your follow-up post yesterday: " … exercise, exercise, exercise!" I do: my daily regimen here at home, following an online balance program, to which I've added a smattering of strength and flexibility training. And, as coincidence would have it, I'm about to phone my neurologist's office. He's a physiatrist, or a physical rehabilitation specialist, with a staff of physical therapists trained to help people with PN. I'm going to ask to meet with one of his therapists. So, yes, exercise, exercise, exercise!

Cheers, Pat!
