Was cleaning the park yesterday for some exercise post Halloween and yeah almost fell on my butt, got into a swing of picking up wrappers when I had to go up a little pool. Used my hurt ankle to get up without thinking, had to switch feet and step up with my good one.
More time passes and that fall I had keeps coming back from time to time. Shit sucks I do hope my full mobility returns back to me, I wanna work a job that will probably have me going up and down ladders one day.
Appreciate your service to the park, that’s awesome and I hope you can heal up and get that job you want sooner than later. Sounds like you really have an interest in something specific which is a cool thing to have and strive for!
Ty I find cleaning up an area I’m at helps with my nerves since being outside so much is tough (not to mention it keeps the cops away from me) I still got HVAC dreams and while I dread getting on a roof I would ideally love to work in restaurants or commercial things
I hope you’ll get our full mobility back soon. Do you have any exercises that can help with that? If not, I hope enough rest will do the trick for you.
Ladders are amazing tools, you should be able to climb them again
Ty
I got some things I should be doing to help that I need to get back too, last time I tried working out some attempt at jump rope really hammered home that nah not there yet. It hurt pretty bad for a few days though I was careless to admit and quick to stop it when I noticed the pain.
Oh no, that sounds painful. Take it easy, please, and don’t hurt yourself trying to get better again. It does sound like you’re making progress though, so keep at it. Slowly but steadily
