The Role of Muscle Memory in Rehabilitation and Recovery

When athletes face the daunting challenge of recovering from an injury, the journey back to full strength can be arduous and frustrating. However, there’s a powerful ally lying dormant within their very muscles—muscle memory. This remarkable feature of human physiology not only plays a crucial role in performing daily activities effortlessly but also significantly aids in the rehabilitation and…

An Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) tear is a common knee injury, often occurring during sports or physical activities. It involves the tearing of the ligament that stabilizes the knee joint, resulting in pain, swelling, and instability. Treatment ranges from rest, physical therapy, to surgical reconstruction, depending on the severity, aiming to restore function and prevent long-term complications.

fic snippet (thomastair)

       Alastair draws himself a hot bath when instructed in the next few notes, being liberal with the perfumed salts Thomas left out and losing himself in the heady scent of lavender. He continues to read—careful not to get the book wet in the process—until his toes are pruned and the water turns cold. He changes into the fresh pyjamas folded neatly on their bed after finding another by the towel he dries himself with, and he slides under the covers after he finds what he assumes is the final note of this elaborate event:

      I hope you are feeling refreshed and thoroughly relaxed, mi amor. Now rest. Cast aside all your woes and allow the night take you on a grand adventure amongst the stars.

      But there is just one final thing I’d like you to do. My final request.

      Dance with me when I return from patrol?

      It takes everything in him not to squeal like a little schoolgirl, and his voice is strangled as he whispers at the paper, ‘God, I love you, Tom.’ He raises it to his lips and kisses it. ‘Of course I’ll dance with you.’

      With that, Alastair switches off the lamp and settles against the pillow, making sure to hold that little piece of paper over his heart. Moonlight streams through the curtain and onto the bed, silvery and bright, and he closes his eyes.

      The grandfather clock downstairs fulfils its duty once again. It chimes through the silent house, a verbose sound.

      One o’clock, it says. Definitely past bedtime, it says.

      But Alastair cannot sleep.

      Never mind Thomas’s sweet request to dance when he returns home, as much as it presses at his mind. He wishes to be against Thomas, to feel his hands on his waist and to hear his heartbeat in his ear as they sway in each other’s arms, and his body aches for it.

      But he wants Thomas home safe and well and in bed with him more.

I think my lizard is going to die :(

Hey guys, my pet lizard is pretty sick, and I cannot afford to take her to a vet because my dog has also recently been sick and all of my money has gone to his vet bills. My dog is fine for right now, but the lizard is not.

She is open mouth breathing (really bad sign), has been refusing food, and thus has lost weight. I suspect she has a respiratory infection. If I were to be able to take her to a vet, I believe they would prescribe her Baytril (antibiotic to fight the infection) and Critical Care to increase her weight, and maybe also something special to soak her in rather than just warm water, just to help keep her hydrated as she is also looking dehydrated. With all of this, I imagine I would be looking at a bill of around $150-$200, or maybe even a little bit more, which i simply do not have right now, especially since I cannot work for the next 4 weeks.

I really don't want to lose her. So I am asking for money to take her to a vet. If I can raise at least $150-$175, I can find a way to cover the rest if it ends up being a bit more than that.

I started a fundraiser on paypal, so if y'all could please consider helping her, or sharing/boosting this post, I would really appreciate it. https://www.paypal.com/pools/c/8Rv9LhIQz9

In the meantime, my plan for her care is twice daily soaks in warm water to keep her hydrated, keeping her in a smaller quarantine tank so I can easily monitor her health as right now she is in a larger one with a mate. She might be eating, but i can't really tell since the other one may be the one getting the food, but I've just moved her to the smaller tank, so I will try to give her some food. If she doesn't eat over the weekend, I have some liquid meal that I can syringe feed to her, but she hates being handled like that. But keeping her fed and hydrated is really all I can do to help make her more comfortable while she tries to fight the infection. There is nothing I can do for her respiratory infection without medical treatment. If any reptile owners out there have any advice for me, i'd appreciate it.

This is her:

OWAUGH

[draco-oriens]

I miss being able to walk. I miss swimming. I miss being free. I miss... my old life. 8 more months of this left and 2 more years of resisting doing my hobbies and of not being able to do my job. This keeps making me unstable.

i like when a symptom is vague enough that it could be nothing or it could be a huge deal. guess i'll just see how it goes
