5. Done with day one
Mon Apr 6, 2026, 09:34 AM
Monday

I feel good....I know I'll be slightly sore later today, but I did my first day back to it and that is a milestone.

In the first days after the accident, I thought I was broken, that I'd never feel normal again.

I still am not back to feeling normal, but It's a lot better. Mentally, doing this was really good for me.

And at the end of May the local pool opens, so I can get a lap swim pass and swim for an hour every day until August.
