Finally getting good doctor advice from Clay’s dad

July 25, 2005

Man, things just don’t move fast enough for me,
and that is my problem. Clay spent an hour talking with his dad, who is
a doctor, about my condition and it all boils down to how much time to
heal. My kidney, he says, can’t be overly damaged or I would not
be peeing yellow. My muscles aren’t getting fixed anyhow, and only
if my tendon is completely off the bone would they do anything anyhow.

Therefore, I am backing off of the theories and going
to focus on rehab and healing. I was able to swim yesterday, as long as
I didn’t kick much, I think that will be my outlet for exercise
for now. Clay and I swam across the lake and back after I drove him around
the lake on his boat. He is very close to nailing his backflip on the
wakeboard!
