Some examples: How many times I could raise and lower my leg before being exhausted. Number of steps I could take at a time. Words I blocked on. Number of times I became altogether unable to complete a sentence. (Though this was more approximate.) Number of pushups I could do. Distance I could walk. Complexity of the hardest logic-puzzle I’d successfully solved. How many words I could write before my hand was exhausted. How coherently I could write (I still have somewhere a piece of paper on which I wrote the same sentence, over and over, on each line; it gradually morphs from a literally indecipherable scrawl to something indistinguishable from a normal-though-sloppy person’s handwriting.)
These were, of course, at different times in my recovery.
