  1. Overweight Today, Disabled Tomorrow?

    Over the years, I exercised, I was a runner, and I ran daily between two and five miles. I ate right; healthy foods, fruits, vegetables, the occasional sweets, within moderation. I kept my weight at a healthy range, I had low body fat. In 2004 I was hurt at work, twice, due to my physical strength, people looked at me oddly. You can’t be hurt! My job fired me; they couldn’t accommodate my work injury.

    Then, my husband, who practiced martial arts for over twenty years, was hit by a car, on the express way by a young girl talking on a cell phone; as she drove her car well over the speed limit. Everyone else was in her way. His life changed.

    We both found out that lawyers don’t help! The courts don’t help! The doctors don’t help! Everyone is out to help themselves. Leaving the cripple person wondering what they did wrong. Oh, in McHenry, Illinois, accidents happen. Ooops, you’re screwed!

    Yes, exercise did help. We didn’t end up in at wheel chair yesterday, or today. Tomorrow is still to be written.

    The main problem we ran into is the health industry in our state is sadly lacking. My first Physical therapist was fifty pounds over weight. She read a women’s magazine while showing me how to perform pelvic tilts, then she had me pick up boxes- the right way. My job was a Marketing Assistant; I wasn’t even supposed to be lifting anything at work.

    Try and tell a doctor you have bad reactions to pain meds.

    I know this Blog is about weight gain. If I had been fat, and out of shape; maybe I wouldn’t have been threaten so easily at my job into lifting boxes, instead, I would have let them fire me.

    And my husband would never have gotten off the couch and been in that car. Today, he could have been fat, happy and not having daily seizures.
