I am not exceptional, but I have a fantastic health story and message for you.
Some people see me walking in the morning as an older man unable to walk in a straight line or at any pace.
What they don’t see is the determination to Reclaim My Health.
The reality is that task is impossible because I can never undo the damage diabetes has done to the nerves in my legs.
Were it not for the pain medication I take, I would not be able to walk, and the muscle atrophy that has taken the strength from my legs resulted in me being confined to a wheelchair; my neurologist told me I would be in six years ago.
I am exceptional because I won’t go silently to that wheelchair and will continue walking daily for as long as possible.
I am exceptional because I believe my message, my lesson, albeit learned too late in my life, can influence someone else.
I am exceptional because I believe if you are reading this and have listened to and read my previous posts on Instagram, you can approach that loved one, friend, or family member who is overweight and convince them to change their habits.
I am exceptional because I know if you don’t do this, you will have to live with the consequences of that failure as you watch your health and the health of your friends and loved ones slowly fall away.
I am exceptional because if you do this, I will have made a positive difference in someone’s life.
Health is energy, and just like a AAA Battery, unless you recharge that energy, it will fail you when you need it the most.
