Welcome to the "club." I was blessed by your note. I wouldn't worry too much
about how your daughter feels about not being able to play catch, etc. -- you
might talk with her about it just in case and to keep the lines of
communication open. But there are so many more important things than being
able to do physical things with kids. I remember in the "early days" of my TM
experience, when I was in bed a lot and not able to help with anything around
the house, my kids would come up to my room just to talk. I remember thinking
that was one good thing to come out of the TM, that we had time just to talk.
So often, even though we're together all day, there's not much time to
actually just sit down and give each other undivided attention. Although your
daughter may have felt she missed out on some "normal" childhood activities,
there are so many others ways to give her time and attention and love. It
sounds you have a good relationship.

Isaiah 53:4 Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows: yet we
did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted.
5 But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our
iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes
we are healed.
6 All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned every one to his own
way; and the LORD hath laid on him the iniquity of us all.
