I lift my bad right leg in the front
Leave it hanging in the air
Left leg is all I have
To balance myself and hop…
My hands ache from the pressure
As I hoist my body
A simple act of walking
Makes me break into sweat
A few more hops and
My good leg starts to shake
It is the body vs mind…
Sometimes it is the body
Many times the mind,
But, it is my heart that
Does the balancing act for me.

You really must be having a tough time Janu..take care of yourself.
