I pushed myself too far…

5/12/22

You have to know your limits. I can’t stress this enough. I learned that today as I sit here with legs that are even more useless then they normally are.

I decided yesterday that I’d go for a walk. No big deal. I’ve been pushing myself. So after I completed my FIRST walk I went on another. AND another. AND ANOTHER! Yep, you counted that right. 4 total spaced out between the day.

Today I feel like I’ve been doing squats. It’s extremely difficult to simply stand. So I’ll be sitting down for most of the day. Getting up only to frequently use the restroom. And that brings me to the next part.

The angry poop is back. I use the word angry because the pressure had returned. And with my current leg status there’s no rushing to the bathroom. I’ve narrowly avoided several accidents thus far. So as you can see I’m stuck in a shitty situation.

Colon cancer goes hand in hand with bowel problems. So now I’m going to pace myself at a slower rate. I want to rush back to health but I can see that’s not an option. Slow and steady will win this race. Turtle it is then.
