Thanks, Nov 23 (for Nov 22)

Today, I am thankful for doctors and readily-available medical care.

A large dog jumped on my leg, and I had been having increasing troubles with it, so much so that I was using a crutch to get around. Well, after x-rays and examination, the doctor and his student doctor assistant shadowing him for a month did not find anything specific. But through that examination, I'm back on my diabetes and blood pressure medicine that I'd been off since February. Also, through that examination, they flexed my leg and foot enough that it broke through whatever was causing the discomfort so that I can flex my leg and walk normally now.

Thanks, Nov 20 (for Nov 19)

Today, I am thank for a couple of things, like Benadryl to combat my severe sinus attack, and rolling chairs (because my leg is hurting - Doctor on Monday).
