Out on Mother’s Day in heels over two inches….
Consciously walking properly (moving foot from heel to toe) for perhaps the first time since knee surgery two years ago….
Doing rows of footwork practice as part of warm-up before training….
Twisting the balls and heels of my feet repeatedly – a few hundred times this week – while doing the double spin section of White Eyebrow….
Whatever the cause, it feels like there’s something horribly wrong in the muscles, tendons and/or ligaments in and around my left knee joint. So much so I’m not sure if I should attend any of the advanced kung fu classes that are a staple of my Saturdays. That’s saying something.
I’ve been trying everything since the end of a surprisingly productive practice Friday night to relieve the edema and increase the range of motion in my left leg. Not asking for a miracle, just a return to normalcy.
I certainly hope that’s not asking for too much.

That’s not asking for too much. I hope, hope, hope you get it.
