  • Immune Privileged

    I’ve had two weeks of lots to do and lots to think about. I went to the East Coast for a funeral and for my mother’s 80th birthday. The original plan was to visit my mother, but the trip started… Continue reading

  • Perturbation Theory

    Perturbation theory is a phrase that was kicking around in my mind after I wrote the last post about my evolving views of exercise and how it fits into a full recovery. I looked it up and realized that it… Continue reading

  • Afterthoughts

    Last night, after writing out all my thoughts about my symptoms, I had insomnia. It gave me time to think things through in the quiet of my mind without any distractions. I have two new ideas, somewhat related to each… Continue reading
