It's summer, and our oldest, Anthony, no longer has his track or cross country team to run with, so David's on call as a running partner. Anthony wants to run at 6am. I don't know where he gets that from - certainly not his mother!
The problem with this - other than that David, a teacher, doesn't get to sleep in on his summer vacation - is that his left leg continues to need to relearn how to function every morning. Throughout the day it improves more and more as David uses it more and more, but after a night of sleep he has to start over with a nearly totally unresponsive limb.
Currently he and Anthony are working on compromises. David is suggesting a 7am running time and a walk around the block before running.
In other news, this summer we have a pool for the first time. I wonder if David might have additional improvement through lots of pool use - with all the different physical motions in the water. Time will tell, I guess.
