I walked without my crutches this morning!!! (UPDATE on page 3)

[Pembo]

Hooray! Glad to hear you had a shoe that fit! When I sprained my ankle I had to go to the store to buy shoes to fit over my aircast! Don't over do it!

 

[Tiger Lily 03]

Yippee! I am happy for you! Please don't push too much, just enough.

 

[Micca]

Hey John- consider a 12 step program. You know, take 12 steps then sit down and put your feet up

 

[Tuffcookie]

Good for you! (but don't over do it! )

Monday update:

On Sunday afternoon, I went out on our deck to grill some steaks. I was using my crutches because I still had my sneakers on. Did you know that wet decks are slippery? Very slippery? My right crutch kicked out on me and a threw my right leg out to catch myself. Talk about stretching. My ankle took the stress, but I spent the rest of the day with my leg elevated and with ice on the ankle. When I went in to PT this morning, Phil noticed some swelling, so he took it easy on me. He was going to put me on the treadmill, but with the swelling, he decided to wait until Wednesday. I guess I was lucky this time.

With the new internet worm that is going around, I wasn't able to connect to work. So I got in my car and drove to work this afternoon. I spent the day fixing a problem that needed to be fixed. My ankle is doing OK, but I can't wait to get home to my couch and my icepacks.

I would have to agree. Need to put yourself on the sofa and not move until the time of your Disney trip.

 

[Stepharoonie!]

Be more careful John!!

 

[Robinrs]

John, you were LUCKY this time!

Are you a government worker, John? My sister works for the IRS and all of their computers are down, too!

 

[Talking Hands]

Back to the sofa with you John! That is not good news.

 

[dianeschlicht]

Glad to hear you are progressing, TC! Maybe you will be up and around by summer yet!

 

[Mackey Mouse]

John, please be careful. Send someone else out to do the cooking..........

 

[Tuffcookie]

Next time, pick up the phone and order pizza delivered!
