Just back from the doctor's office and having my first cup of badly needed coffee. The news is in and I was told sorry there is nothing we can do about this you have arthritis in both knees. Yep other then exercise to strength my legs I will have to live with the pain and with luck I will be able to keep going at this level for some time to come. Shitty as I am a cook and on my feet all the time and some days the pain is a lot. If this does not motivate me to get off my ass and put in the extra work nothing will. OK yoga I am all in

well over a month now and I am finding the time every other day (well four out of seven days a week), I am still not very flexible and the chance has been huge :)

Well I am still doing yoga (but not every other day but still on average 3-4 times a week). I have come a long way but still have a long way to go. I can lift both my legs/ knees up & down mostly pain free, some days can even do child's pose with out my knees killing me, funny how one of the easiest poses is so hard to do with arthritis, the simple things you take for granted. The tumor in my leg is gone again for now but some days it makes working/walking hell but for now it is all manageable and my rescue cat stopped hating me a long time ago and now acts more like a dog when I get home then a cat (she can get so needy lol).
