Hi everyone!
Thank you all so much for your kind words. I was still really nervous but everything went great. I was planning to just stay in the shallow end, but found myself swimming 6 lengths. I could have probably done more too, but didn't want to push myself too much. Then the kids and I were able to have a bit of a play on some floats and things. It was a great day! I did feel a bit weak at times, but just tried to stay fairly close to the side "just in case". The ladder getting out was okay too.
I had so much fun that I agreed to go back on Thursday. I figure if I can swim a couple of times a week i might even be able to shift a few of those extra steroid pounds!
It's great to hear that so many of you are able to do some normal physical activity - amazing to think how much this condition varies!
Take care.
