Walking!

So I got to put away those crutches and surgical boot today!! Yeah!! I'm walking unassisted and without pain. My foot feels a bit sore, but after so many weeks of not using it, I'm not surprised. With the PT I also worked out on the exercise bike and started the work of rebuilding strength in my legs, especially the right one.

I'm excited, liberated, and very grateful. I can walk around freely, cook, drive (short distances only)...go for walks. Next week I can swim.

Doc is not keen on jacuzzis or pedicures in the near future. I can live without them. Walking, swimming, driving....I'm so appreciative of what I can do.
