I have a genetic degenerative joint condition. Ever since I had COVID, I've been on a speedrun to decrepitude. I have my leg braces and a cane, and I can still do my job. BUT IT'S EXHAUSTING.

My geneticist says that as long as I keep doing my exercises, I should avoid a wheelchair, so that's nice.
