Monday August 9,2010







today I received a copy of my uncle's obituary from the editor of the Ituna News Paper...I had made enquiries to find if the paper had a link for online viewing and she e-mailed me back saying, no but if I sent her my address she'd mail me a copy and I did and she did and I got my paper this a.m...There are lots of kind people out there...I also read some research today that said that people who have limited mobility problems need extra exercise to prevent developing respiratory problems because of in activity...this study suggested starting with 5,000 steps/day then 7,500 steps/day and the ultimate goal of maintaining would be 10,000 steps/day...so I decided to challenge myself (since my legs give me the most problems from my MS)...today with my cane in hand and step counter I went out for an extra walk....at 10:00 o'clock my step counter read 9,217 steps or 4.6km...we'll see how my legs react tomorrow...added benefits to doing 10,000 steps per day..sleep better,better digestion cardiovascular as well as energy levels were better....so far so GOOD I'll see what my body and tomorrow say......
