I suffered.

It has been four months and I am still suffering. Because I am not twenty years old, I developed a huge blister on my foot, and it got infected because I did not notice it thanks to my neuropathy. I have been wearing crap on my foot since then. I spent the entire summer staring at a swimming pool because I could not get into it. It took me a week to generally recover from it, and we still have the garage to go though to weed things out. The hardest part is having to get rid of things that you used to use all the time, but now you barely touch because of your bad health. I have lots of tools that I now have to look into doing something with because I just cannot use them like I used to.

It sucks.
