Teeth Wellllllllll..................

How about a little bike riding.... NO not the Harley D, I mean the push the pedal kind of bicycle. Prior to the wreck, I was riding bike 12 miles a day, whether my real mountain bike, or, if traveling, the hotel stationary bikes.

My wife and I now have bikes and we are riding to rebuild strength and stamina. It is a kick!! Hiking, I used to do, but cannot truly do the wilderness stuff I did because the legs are not what they were with the numbness and all, so I treadmill it, allowing me to hold on as I stride- balance and propreoception is not an issue then. Pool exercise in the local therapy pool is a good one for us.

I may not be doing all I did before, but there is no reason not to give it a go at what we CAN do. GO KIM GO!!!

Yeah, OOah,
