Ahh...it feels so good to not have an apparatus on my foot...
I started physical therapy last Wednesday. My therapy starts with 20 minutes of ice therapy/massage followed by range of motion strengthening exercises as well as stretching exercises. Last Thursday it was the same thing. Last Saturday I progressed to the elipitical bike WITHOUT my velcro terminator boot on.
Last Saturday around 5pm I decided to just put my foot down and I hobbled a little bit around my room with my crutches. Last Sunday David came over and I walked around my house with one crutch. Yesterday I had another therapy session and did everything I said before as well as the leg press machine.
Now it is Tuesday and I am WALKING. Yes walking. With regular shoes. NO CRUTCHES!
I am well on my way to recovery....my ankle is very stiff and sore still but it is working itself out. Thanks to all for the encouragement and love!
Aw, congratulations! That must feel amazing! :) So happy for you!
