Chi, if you an still play bball then you are ahead of the "game". If you read through all the pages, then you will know that I drank myself into a wheelchair. I have bounced back, but I still can't run (at all) but I can hike, bike, bowl, walk for miles, swim, waterski, etc....I am still to get snow skiing again and I WILL run (or at least jog) again, but I am not very motivated to do so

I think your timing is quite good, so do what you need to do!
