home ceragem theraphy - plodding on
alhamdulillah, my ceragem and walking teraphy proceeding as planned. major activity currently in the muscles at the upper thigh, it's been straining since lunchtime. could it lead to a more improved walking tomorrow, inshaallah, i certainly hopes so as i have never before felt this kind of strain of these muscles before.

mind and body
in the early days of my walking teraphy , taking each step was a tremendous exertion, my body was telling my mind that taking that step could mean falling or stumbling. so what i do now is that i empower the mind to command the body, where taking the next step is difficult i command my mind to in turn command my body to make that step. mercifully, alhamdulillah, to date, there hasn't been any falls with serious repercussions, although there has been one or two falls wherein i have managed to immediately get up and resume my walking teraphy. i do believe that this training regime is strengthening my mind and not allowing my body to be in charge , like the time when i was in the royal military college. there, cross-country running was a torture for me, where others breeze through it, i was continually being left behind, this because i let my body dictate to my mind that i cannot continue with that run any further, alhamdulillah, this is another hikmah of my stroke. i am not there yet with the walking, but inshaallah, daily walking teraphy for the next 12 months plus ceragem and all the other regime should render my walking more to what it was before,after all, a baby takes a while to walk, what with this old abused body of mine.
so, onward we shall plod
so, onward we shall plod

home ceragem theraphy - plodding on
plodding on, this morning walk was tough, however i can feel the spring at the joint between the foot and the lower tibia, inshaallah it is now a matter of conditioning the muscles and ligaments and tendons.

home ceragem theraphy - plodding on
alhamdulillah, yesterday, i did the walk again, it may not be 500m but 500 feet, thats still quite a distance considering that a few years ago just talking 3 steps in succession was a monumental effort on my part . inshaallah, i will attempt it again today, the 30th day of fasting with the objective to reduce and iron out any grasping of tree branches and hesitation in taking the next step.
