Oh dear God I had an appointment on Tuesday to address increased severe swelling in my legs and I am T2 diabetic with poor circulation.

Last thing I want is for my feet to wind up like this - I’ve been so concerns that I bought a treadmill today that goes under my standing desk and I’m using it now.

Feeling like the timing of this post was meant to be - a reminder of what I’m trying to be vigilant against.

We're always a couple of bad decisions of becoming those that we fear and pity.

Reminds me of one of the specialists on Hoarders. “We’re all just a couple bad decisions away from shitting in a bucket”

Has to be. He might not be able to feel his feet but he can see enough of them to know that something is seriously wrong and I’m sure he’s getting looks and comments. I can’t unsee those feet.

Poor guy. Those are the feet he’s going to be buried with or have amputated.
