Happy Anniversary???

Today is the 2nd anniversary of my infamous bike accident. I've learned a lot about healing in the past two years. I learned that it took more than a year for the shoulder to feel back to normal again, and that the "minor" injury (the knee) is the one which has made what seems to be a permanent change in my life. I'm so used to the knee problems now that they have almost become the "norm" for me, though I still can't bike and it is still a major production to get out of a car, and finding a seat in a theatre is tricky because I need a place to stretch my knee out. I had that problem before (the need to stretch the knee out), but adding the apparent numbness which is now part of the knee has made it that much more necessary.
