Thanks Gillian, a gift to myself indeed. I feel a whole lot better today.
These days I avoid exercising in heat, i dont think my kidney appreciates. Also my muscles are already working overtime to balance me, a curse of hypermobility! Saying that, ive been working on my hips, knees, ankles, and feet for a while - the muscles are strong but i may need surgical assistance if i want my feet straightening up.
Enjoy your holidays!
