I can walk!!!!!

About a week after my surgery I fell off a ladder.  It went one way, I went the other.  I landed on my feet (don't ask how, I don't know) but the leg of the ladder caught me in the shin.  I bruised right to the bone...it swelled up and turned black and blue in less than 10 minutes.  I've still got a bruise on the front of my shin and a hard knot on the side.  So, the reason I tell you this is that I haven't been able to go on the walks I planned to becuase it hurt to even step on it.  Today was the 1st time that I was able to.  At lunch I walked 3/4 mile at the local track and it felt GREAT!!!  I'm gonna go again tomorrow and and and and and and.....

I've been at a complete stall since surgery and I knew it was because I haven't been able to exercise (wanted to use my total gym but they told me NO at my two week checkup) so I've been limited. 

THIS FEELS SOOOOOO GOOD!!!!

Awesome, its so hard when we can't exercise.  I know I havent' been to the gym in almost two weeks and it sucks. Glad to hear you are on the mend.  Let the losing begin!
