I want to be invincible again

Keywords: aging , falling , hiking

I have friends who have stopped going for walks in winter, afraid of slipping on icy sidewalks. I’ve given up ice skating, and other friends have given up skiing. But how do we balance our need for exercise and getting outside with being safe? I was talking to a friend about this, and we agreed you need to find a balance: be more careful and more aware but don’t let the fear stop you from doing things you love. It’s a hard balance to find, but one that’s becoming increasingly necessary as we gingerly step into a new phase of aging.

I’m struggling focusing, but I want to get this done so it’s going out anyway

Keywords: anxiety , arteriovenous malformation , avm , brain fog , brain surgery

Do you [ever] have those day when you are just exhausted and you can’t get anything right? It is so hard. Right after brain surgery that was my daily life. It’s gotten better over the years, but it still happens more often than I’d like. If I can’t sleep at night my next day never goes well.
