Back To Rehab
Back To Rehab So...........I'm back at rehab - my peeps missed me Pretty sure cardiac rehab was NOT designed for the younger generation I am the youngest in class by close to 2 decades but I think I could "take" some of them this time LMAO In my last class I was put to shame by "Father Fred" ........ he was booking along about twice as fast as me on the treadmill ......... and did I mention he was 80! 80! Business is up - there must be alot of sick people - I already had my blood pressure up just finding a parking spot. The class ahead of mine is full so the folks from my class line up waiting for open parking spots ........ I'm patiently waiting in line ...... it's finally my turn .......... and .........this little old couple jumped the line and got my spot! This cardiac rehab class takes place at the hospital, the parking lot is huge and they have added on so many times the hospital is like a rambling maze. The entire yellow lot had NOT ONE open parking space.........do you really think I can hike it in a mile and then work out for an hour? LMAO You obviously have not drawn up an acurate picture of my lame ass dragging my "Gout" foot (in the middle of my second flare-up already) behind me like Quasimoto.......limp, wheeze, shuffle, limp, wheeze, shuffle I like the elderly as much as the next person........but when it comes to that parking lot - it's game on! |

LMAO Oh yeah - I can imagine the horror! Those old people can be surprisingly spry and resilient......... You must have come a long way from that event - thats pretty darn awesome.

I got kicked out of burn rehab in about three weeks. They told me I had amazing healing powers. Hope you'll soon be kicking the 80 year old's ass on the treadmill.

I thought I was working on that treadmill as kicking today as I was keeping in step with the old geezer to my right........then he kicked it into gear and started RUNNING..........he had just been warming up at the pace I walk......hhmmmmmmm........LMAO

I think you should have kicked some senior butt!!!

You should get a "disabled" parking thingy, silly... Who you callin' silly? LOL I have a handicapped placard but in all their wisdom the parking lot planners put in exactly 2 handicapped spots in the cardiac rehab lot.......hmmmmmm........maybe they are the silly ones, eh?

Purp, I really hope you're doing better, baby. I think after 9 months that I'm done with the hospital. Of course, the parking lot is on the west side of the place, and the GI department is clear on the east side, 5th floor!

I had my blood pressure taken on Monday and it read normal. Surprising, as the nurse was hot! Parking at my local health park (posh name for the docs surgery) is a nightmare. They have almost twice as many spaces for staff than for patients.
| ||
|
at your acurate picture! Ooops sowwy ...... Spank my bottom lol. Yep that's deffo fighting stuff when someone nick's a parking space WTH.......S~M~A~C~K!
| ||
|
Sounds like a hike to get there..hope your cardiac rehab goes well for you...give em' hell...
| ||
|
Hey Purp Just consider part of your rehab - patience training. Thanks for stopping by - good luck in rehab - keep up the pace. Bye
| ||
|
lol, it sounds like you have the right attitude. Maybe it's time for a blue tag girlie girl.
| ||

That was rather rude of them!!! I thought the elderly were more respectful of such things. I hope rehab goes well & your gout clears up. Thanks for the Gout wishes.......I would not even wish this on my worst enemy. The other night I couldn't even sleep from the pain and was in tears by 6:30 a.m. - now I got 20 more Vicodin so that should help me get through the last of this flare and then I can start taking the preventive medication and hope, hope, hope that works.

Sadly they do not feed us at cardiac rehab.......LOL
| ||
|
LOL......oh yeah, in all actuality I luv my older classmates - they are the bomb! I also truly appreciate elderly humor - they are always cracking me up. From what I have seen their greatest tip seems to be not to take life too seriously and to S~L~O~W down.

You can do this. It's been 2 and a half years since my heart attack and I'm in better physical condition now than I was then. It will just take some work and some time. 'Til Later, The Ole Milkman. Wow! It's been 2 and a half years since your heart attack? I'm so glad for you that your in better physical condition than before - proud of you!

hi Purp I hope you can relax in the rehab.
| ||
|
Perhaps it is time to wheedle a handicapped sticker so you can park a bit closer.
| ||
|
Yup.......still hanging in there......and you?
| ||
|
Oh yeah......I believe it........LOL Ya gotta watch out for those lil old ladies! he ha he ho In all sincerity I luv the older folks in my class - they are awesome.
| ||
|
LOL.....heck yeah - game on! I actually have a lot of respect for my "older" class mates - I think it's awesome they have "go power" and I aspire to be like them. Oh yeah, and I luv elderly humor......LOL

Does the hospital have valet parking? I take a lot of people to and from cardiac rehab, and it really wears some of them out. And they're none to happy to go back either.
| ||
|
Sounds like our hospital here. They've added on several times and keep buying property to expand the parking lot. Pretty soon they may need to get shuttle service up here.
