The Hard Stretch

So now this journey really could be just as long as it seems. There is no guarantee of when I can get into Dr. Sherry's rehab program. There are five spots available, the average patient requires three weeks in the program, and spots get filled just as quickly as they open. That's reality.

Yes, I can treadmill for 45 minutes a day and see a physical therapist in town here. But those are imperfect options. Obviously they will help some, but I know for a fact that Dr. Sherry's program works wonders.

So pain is once again a fixture in my life, at least for a while. Now comes the really hard part, the quest, the secret to living like this: I must find meaning. I must find happiness. I must transcend the pain.

I'm on a mission.
