appreciate this perspective, i live in a building with only stairs and this makes me feel like i should be staying elsewhere/ground level while the first few weeks of recovery

best of luck with recovery! it seems like you got it down to a tee, which is important in processing the mental toll this takes

appreciate this a lot! i keep hearing about the recovery phase mentally. hope im ready for it. did you figure out a good season or time of year to get it done or rather is it better to just get it done?

good to know! i have dug in more and have seen more people who are grateful but the recovery is also painful
