"Oliver Sacks once reported the case of a young woman who lost her proprioception due to a viral infection of her spinal cord. At first she was not able to move properly at all or even control her tone of voice (as voice modulation is primarily proprioceptive). Later she relearned by using her sight (watching her feet) and vestibulum (or inner ear) only for movement while using hearing to judge voice modulation. She eventually acquired a stiff and slow movement and nearly normal speech, which is believed to be the best possible in the absence of this sense. She could not judge effort involved in picking up objects and would grip them painfully to be sure she didn't drop them."
Well at least your proprioception deficiencies are taking second fiddle to your hacking, horizontal lungs. Maybe the horizontal lungs are actually contributing to the proprioception inadequacies...now there's a thought...
Ryan can create a perfect outline and master all three Bhagwat essays (the ones with the 5 page fact patterns) with time remaining...but he can't see ghosts for shit....
Will do Ry! Got a job as well, so now I can go and just enjoy myself...Well, except for that writing competition thing. Damnit! Have a good week of relaxation yourself.
