I think the *only* thing that might be helping him is that he does walk some. Now, is it "enough", probably not. but at least he's not completely sedentary or scooting about in a scooter (yet).
Not yet in a scooter, but today he did whine about the trams not running so he's on track!
I had a bit of a disturbing experience with Michael's video today, but it was my own fault. I knew it would end badly.
After my family had gathered for our lunchtime rage watch I sparked up the ole youtube app and navigated to the home page. google knows that on Wednesdays at noon we like to rage watch michael, so his video was first up on the list of suggested videos.
In the #2 slot was the new Beatles Get Back movie trailer which was released just 2 hours earlier. google knows that I like the Beatles. Long story short: I have been a drummer for 50+ years because of Ringo. I still play, I played earlier today over She Said She Said. It was really loud, I have a 14" subwoofer. It's still a blast. Anyway, I'm still recovering from the Beatles breakup 50+ years later. The 1970 movie Let It Be made me want to slit my wrists it was so grim/depressing. The new movie shows that the 1970 movie presents an inaccurate picture of their relationships to each other. My salvation is coming T-Day on Disney+!!
Anyway I decide to play the Beatles movie trailer before raging at Michael. The music was coming out of 11 or 13 speakers, it was incredible.
Then I put on Michael's video. Talk about a tough act to follow, Michael didn't stand a chance. I knew he wouldn't, that's why I did it, but I paid the price. To go from the absolute best sound/video to michael's sound/video was a such huge drop in quality that I felt physically unbalanced. If I had known that Dave had put up another word salad "my future plans" video I would have had the Beatles compete against that hot mess. Dave if you're reading, you're approaching 30, the Beatles weren't yet 30 when they broke up -- George Harrison was 27!!! It's not fair to compare you to them, but you seriously need to understand the entertainment food chain and where you are in it. You like music, do this: watch Missing Persons' Destination Unknown (1980ish) and see if you can figure out which two singers copied the lead singer's look/attitude.
I drum, but I know that I suck. You think you're awesome, but awesome is not making youtube word salads.
