I always had problems with my knees-- they slipped out . I grew too
fast, had flat feet, wore orthopedic shoes and knee braces throughout
high school... i remember wearing a flowered mini dress i had sewn
and loved and wearing knee braces..... I was told there was a surgery
to fix them for me but at the time--- now 40 years ago--- they only
gave me 60/40 odds. I didn't want to be lame and so I cast about for
a solution.
Swimming was wonderful...but before i discovered swimming I did yoga.
Yoga helped enormously back then. And now there are way more
practitioners than when I studied. I watched Richard Hittleman
faithfully on New York's Channel 13.
I mourn TM's theft of my ability to walk or stand and wish you the
best in your efforts to retain that.
