We spent much of the summer together since we were off of work and we thought we were back to normal. We went walking in the Georgia summer heat and thought we were doing fantastic (I was at least a little better, since I could hardly walk to the living room before). <br /><br />Looking back on it, we weren't even close to where we thought we were. It took him quite a while to get back where he was before and he was/is a runner and cyclist in great shape before (and after) surgery.<br /><br />You will look back in a year and probably think "Wow, what was I thinking judging myself and trying to do so much?!". <br /><br />By the way, you are awesome! What a fantastic, life changing thing you have done for your brother. <br /><br />Sarah in AtlantaSarahnoreply@blogger.com
