    I dream of running, of feeling strong, of feeling like my feet barely touch the ground and sometimes I’m flying./END

    I know my knee will heal, even if it is frustratingly slow. I don’t know if my other issues will be resolved in the future, if I’ll ever have another day when I’ll just wake up and feel good all day. 10/

    I can’t go to the store because carrying heavy groceries can throw off my balance. I can’t drive. I can’t run errands. I am dependent on other people. 9/

    On top of everything else – the pain, the frustration, the inability to clear my head - I just fundamentally hate asking for help. But with my knee this way I can’t go up and down stairs without assistance. 8/

    Adjusting to the constant noise and distraction of having my family in this two-bedroom apartment all the time has only been possible because I could run, and now I can’t. 7/

    Running was also the only time of the day when I could be alone. As a deep introvert it is so important to me to be away from other people, to have time alone in my head. 6/

    It robs you of the ability to be in the moment, to find joy. But running let me chase all of that away, if only for a few miles. 5/

    If you’ve never dealt with chronic health problems it’s hard to describe how completely they can take over. It’s difficult to focus on writing, reading, working, talking, eating, sitting, anything at all without being aware on some level that you are in discomfort or pain. 4/

    Sixteen days ago I was out for a run when I felt something in my right knee pop and then crunch. Since then I have been unable to walk without limping. I can’t run. Last night I dreamed I was running and when I woke up I almost thought it was real, that I could run again. 1/
