Pessimism

The last 24 hours have been illuminating. I've gradually realized that I am not getting stronger, but weaker.

And that I am depressed.

When the PT came, we couldn't do the arm/shoulder exercises because I was too sore from doing them two days earlier. These are very simple movements. My arms are still hurting this morning.

Yesterday the nurse told me to no longer walk anywhere -- not even the ten feet to the door, without my cane. He said I am at grave risk of falling again.

I have no appetite and very little contact with the outside world.

I'm going to try and write today but I don't know that I can.
