Feet Washing in the Sink is Genetic

Backstory: I told my mom I pulled a hamstring trying to wash my feet in the bathroom sink.
Geez- I think that feet-washing in the sink is a generic thing- I do the same thing except it’s getting harder and harder to get my leg up- plus the fact that our sink is higher than normal. I’m afraid I’m going to try it some day, lose my balance and fall back and hit my head on the bathtub and die of a concussion!!! Let the coroner try to figure that out!!!
Anyway, I found (from other many trips to the hospital) a small plastic basin that was used to give us “sponge baths” and I’m going to use that to wash my feet instead of tempting fate and trying to lift my leg (wait- that’s my mother’s leg- not mine- I have legs like Tina Tuner -) Keep cool and keep in touch. Love, Mom

Why Mom Never Went Pro

When Tom was born he had to be under lights for several days. He looked like a movie star in sunglasses with a little black mask over his eyes. With you I pulled my hamstring muscle in my groin. I didn’t realize it until the next morning it was painful to scoot the few inches to swing my legs off the bed and stand up. When the intern came to see me- he was the doctor for the Peoria hockey team- he told me he saw that a lot in hockey players. My roommate said it had happened to her husband when he was playing baseball. I asked how long it would take to heal, she said “All I know is if you’re playing semi-pro, your career is over.” And that is why I never took up hockey or baseball.



Love, Mom
