He is on his way!!!!!!!!
On a BIKE!!!!!!!!
I have been a diabetic for the last 12 years, not an injecting one, just diet and tablet controlled. Unfortunately the drugs used to control the problem have side effects, one of which is muscular wastage and I lost the muscles in my legs.
A few years ago I could only walk with a stick and had to rest if I was on my feet for too long. I got severe pain in my knees. Eventually things got so bad I decided to stop taking certain drugs.
I can now walk unaided, everything is under control and I can now ride a bike!!! Ann and I cycled some distance (for us) in the Veluwe National Park without wiping other cyclists off the road. Mind you, I got up close and personal with a tree on one occasion!
The last time we both rode was 27 years ago in a charity cycle ride of about 25 miles. We could hardly walk for two days afterwards. No ill effects after our trip this time.
