Not really - went to out patient physical therapy today.
New hip joint not THAT much longer than my other leg - it may be do-able without much trouble. We shall see....
I walk goofy - not putting my core strength on my left hip - got some great exercises.
Electrical currents on my scar to help wake up my nerves. Why did they have to do such a huge incision without doing lyposuction? (I thought of something! I have an ultrasound machine at home from my foot surgery! YES! He said use it! It will help the lumpy, yucky scars I have.
Amazing how little work can produce such aches - I will never use the word PAIN again, after experiencing the real pain that I did in this accident. Pain? Let me tell you what pain is! Wow - I shudder.
When I see shiny tiles I cringe.
Baby steps. I asked about walking a half marathon in April - it takes ONE YEAR for all the tissues to heal. Hmmm....doctor appointment with "ball bearing specialist" next Wednesday - will tell all.
Until then, day by day. I am not a day by day kind of person - at all. I am learning, trying to embrace this time that makes no sense to all of me. I feel like I am in the middle and twirling in a giant quastion mark.
God is good. I have great family, great friends. I love learning - there is a lot to study all the time. Culturally, things certainly shift around.
Eternity is real - and the most important aspect of this life. To live is Christ, and to die is gain. Yes - what a comfort this is.
I have 3 close friends who are looking into passing into eternity - I pray for them and their families. Joe Spencer, Bill Carroll, and Siri Shapiro's mom - God bless you and your families as you await this. How blessed the peace and hope in Jesus you have.
