4 Months Post Surgery

In less than a week from now, it'll be four months since the surgery and five months since the bad landing. My physical therapist is trying to terminate my therapy, claiming that I am "not making progress." Needless to say, I disagree with that. Yes my progress may be slow but I am definitely making progress. I don't think she fully grasps the extent of my injuries. I still can't straighten my leg all the way when I walk though. She looked at my foot and determined that I have limited mobility in some of my foot bones. I asked her if this warrants continuing therapy, and she said, "I'll look at it on Thursday and see." Well after this discovery with my foot bones, my worry has escalated to big time!

In the meantime, I've started going back to the gym and meeting with my personal trainer. He's so very supportive, encouraging, and he doesn't judge me for being a skydiver. He challenges me but doesn't push me to do things that would harm my knee. When I woke up sore this morning, it was a great feeling, knowing that my hard work is paying off. My next big goal is going back to spinning class. To be continued...
