Great thoughts, Michael. Thanks.

Interestingly, doing increments as you wonder about just sucks away the 
brain energy. I think the mechanism of healing is different than "training" 
but is, in fact, healing through the growth of new neural connections. I've 
found recovery and healing comes in bursts and plateaus. The key, it seems, 
is being open to God's grace and living life as fully as possible through 
it all. So, my rule is to avoid things that mess me up, focus on things I 
can do, and let the neural connections happen because of that. Then, every 
now and then, I do the next foolish thing, like trying to run or ride a 
bike, and see how it goes. So front loading weight is on the "next foolish 
thing" list, along with attending/serving at Mass, being around people no 
matter how scented they may be, carrying weight above my waist, driving...

With abandon,
Patrick
