Walking Feels Good

On Friday, I had a doctor's apt., and in going to the doctor's office, I wouldn't allow my dad to push me in my wheelchair.  Instead, he assisted me, while walked with my cane.  Although I felt extremely tired, it felt very liberating to walk instead of sitting while my father wheeled me around.  Every one of my body parts that touch the wheelchair, received the air they so desperately wanted.  All of the nurses I know looked very happy to see me walking.  The choice I made to not sit down really improved other people's day.  I walked from the car to the Dr's office, then I visited my old nurses, and then I walked back to the car. Don't take walking for granted.
