The boys got off to school this morning without trouble. Lizze and Gavin came with us because we were going to hit the park and go walking before returning home.
Walking isn’t always easy but Lizze did really good this morning. We went for just under a mile and a half. Gavin did well also and didn’t complain abiht anything the whole time.
Sometimes Gavin will experience joints popping out of socket while walking and that’s very painful. Everything went smoothly for him and that’s always a good thing.
The walk was shorter than I would do on my own and that’s okay. I’ll make a second trip later today and get some more time in.
I’m so proud of Lizze because I know how hard this is for her and I can see in her eyes how much pain she’s in but she did great.
Over time, this should start to help her feel better and she deserves to feel better. ☺
Yes, it should help Lizze to feel better. Starting from where she is mild to moderate exercise is the best. Every single person with fibro can feel better with the appropriate exercise, but it is a very specific to each individual. WORSE, the best amount can change from day to day which is totally frustrating for those of us with fibro. (As exercise becomes more constant the exercise amount should become more consistent.)
Lizze might be surprised at feeling a little better after the exercise. Or if she does a certain amount several times a week, she should hopefully find a gentle overall improvement. Anyway, sounds like Lizze is doing the right things. It’s got to be hard for her and tell her I’m thinking of her and sending good energy.
