Climbed 5 flights of stairs without sounding like a dying tractor. Lungs threw a party.

When I was on the pills, Saturday and Sunday were just a blur of naps and "zoning out." I’d blink and it would be Monday morning. This weekend, I went for a walk, read half a book, cleaned the kitchen...

No more screen headaches.

Kids know my face.
