WORKING HARD, PROGRESSING MAYBE


I think I am making progress. I feel a little stronger walking around the house with out the boot.
Yesterday I rode a stationary bike for 25 min, the most exercise I have had scince the break.
I have definitely gained degrees to the angle I can bend my ankle.
My ankle is a little more swollen but I am really giving it a work out so I assume that is to be expected. Without the boot I walk very slowly. It was a strange sensation. I realized I was not really walking but putting my bad foot down flat then stepping with the other foot normally. I am trying to remember how to walk. I think there is something that I am not doing with my left hip.
The horrible pain has been gone for a few days, even when I tried have it by banging my boot on the stair. I am hopeful that it is actually better and not just waiting until I least expect it to surprise me.

Today I met with 3 childhood friends. Two of them I haven't seen in 21 years and then only briefly. What fun. We talked and talked and had a great time. Nosotras hablamos mucho!
