As an example of my trying to clear-up any & all MISunderstandings I create, I emailed my gym owner the following message:
"I have many DEADENED pain-receptor neurological cells. So, often I don't feel IMMEDIATE pain. Thus, I didn't realize just how serious the injuries to my left hip & lower back are that I suffered, when I stumbled getting off the incline on Monday. I didn't notice the searing pain, 'til I was doing pushups yesterday. They seem to only hurt, when I really stress them, hence the pushup-trigger. I was trying to signal that my walker was too far away from me to grab to stabilize myself. But, as I struggle to cogently speak, my grunts & hand gestures FAILED me. My trainer didn't do anything "WRONG", per say. He just OVERestimated me.
Yes, I have a Traumatic Brain Injury. But, I still very much know what I CAN & caN'T do."
