One of the pleasant surprises from last month is that I
have a good shot at 100 % recovery from the break in my foot. That was a
surprise because I have had to settle for a lot less in recovery for my
shoulders/arms/hands. On a good day it’s about 80%, on a bad day about 50%.
‘nough said. It has stopped me from committing to a regular job playing, but
not playing on my own. I really think this has helped in my recovery. You see,
organists have overdeveloped ankles and calves. Our thighs are generally toned
and even though we sit a lot, our hips seem to be stronger and in better
condition than many folk. So, getting muscles strength back after not walking
for 7 weeks has been a bit easier. Not less painful; there’s only way to build
muscle. I seemed to start with a bit of an advantage. So, off to work on those
pedals.
