That is some cool positive advice the Lone Crab gives. My take is that the body needs time to restore energy and wellness. It is hard but looks like accepting things you can not change. Writing about the feeling you are experiencing on bed rest could be a topic to get back writing and doing everything you are not able to do now. Hang in there. Lifting you up in prayer. ((hugs))
My feet swell sometimes. I've had DVT twice in one leg, once in the other. I'm very careful. But yesterday... there was a swollen bruise on my right leg. I pressed it to see how badly swollen. It indented more than 1/2 inch but seems to be okay today. I worry about my poor circulation, scrub my toes with a soft bristle brush, watch discoloration come and go. I probably need new arteries or veins but hey... "Heathcare" USA (enough said?). I may be better off trying something here in Thailand. But still... wish I lived in a country that had adequate patient based healthcare. Thailand and Taiwan mostly do, but I can't access it. First world systems like Europe, Canada and Australia do, but again, I can't access it.
I know I sound bitter.
Hope the knot is minor and discoloration normal. And... hopefully the doctor can come up with a plan that suits you.
As for school... I'm too old unless it's free. I learn a lot by traveling and reading articles on the internet and by talking with people about their experiences. Textbooks have limits.
My feet happen to feel just like that today. I had to go out to a doctor appointment and the post office. It didn't take much to get mine screaming in pain. btw: stepping on a Lego is the worst! You probably already know that.
Our latest adventure seems like one I'd enjoy most in real life so far. Actually, I'd love to take Ravyn and poke around for a few days. Cortland Rural Cemetery is the first place that caught my eye. We've been known to spend the day wandering through a cemetery. Most people think it's morbid or just plain crazy. Older places like this one have so much to offer. Have you ever taken the time to really look around a cemetery? To embrace all the secrets of the past? Each monument and mausoleum can tell a snippet of history that otherwise has been forgotten. It seems to me that modern resting places don't have the charm of the older ones. Yes, charm. A small pathway through a stone garden can end at a bench surrounded by flowers. The perfect place to reflect on life, gather strength from nature, and be inspired by the memories of ancestors. Honestly, spending the day exploring this historic cemetery and then visiting the 1890 House Museum sounds like an ideal way to pass the time. So much history!
