Judi, this really stood out to me. The reminder that balance is more than just having strong legs, and that our feet play such an important role, is something many people may not realize. I also appreciate how honest you were about being discouraged by something that made you feel there was no hope. Your focus on simple, consistent exercises and taking things slowly makes this feel practical rather than overwhelming. Most of all, the message that we are not alone and can still work toward better balance is one worth sharing.
