Yesterday there was the annual 10K run in my local park.
I went out to watch and encourage some of the children and teenagers racing. I don't know what it was, but something in me broke as I watched the final straight of the girl's race, truly they were giving it 100%.
I had to leave.
By the time I got home I was uncontrollably blubbing and my wonderful wife gave me a long and needed hug. I am so not over this.
I also have a difficult week ahead of me in December - I need to cause myself a lot of discomfort and even pain, in order to plead my cause with the surgeon again. I now do not know which will be the harder of the two, the emotional or physical discomfort. Add in a healthy dash of frustration as another three months fly (they don't fly) simply to see the surgeon again.
Boo!
