Another update - broken ankle/leg

[grannyjo]

I saw the surgeon today, and I'm allowed to weight bear. Limited to just a few minutes during each hour at the moment, and I have to keep the CAM walker on.

He said the bones are progressing nicely, but I will not be able to drive for several more weeks.

I have physio lined up for the next several weeks to try and get some flexibility back in the ankle.

It is a great improvement. I will be able to get out of the wheelchair - finally. Whoopee!

I've tried a few steps, assisted by crutches, and so far, all feels good.

Quite exhausting though.

I'll get there. I am determined to do that.

Thanks for the update. Glad to hear things are improving for you (though I'm sure it's not going as fast as you'd like).
Get your rest. Tomorrow is another day where you'll face challenges. It's terrific you're a trooper!

Thanks for the update , it seems to be healing nicely Grannyjo and you can kick the wheelchair away but don't use your crook leg lol, make sure you keep up with the physio that's very important:yougogirl:
