Wooooooooo Hooooooooooooo!\u00a0 <\/span>Two weeks have passed and I\u2019m at the Big Five Oh!\u00a0 <\/span><\/span><\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n
What? No! Not the Big 5-0 years old. I\u2019m taking about 50% weight on my left foot.\u00a0 <\/span>The 5 oh years old thingy happens tomorrow.\u00a0 <\/span>But that\u2019s not important right now. Walking people! Walking is the important bit.<\/span><\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n
I\u2019ve been slowly adding a little weight over the last 2 weeks. It still hurts a bit when I put a good bit of weight down on the foot, but it\u2019s getting there.\u00a0 <\/span>And that\u2019s only because I haven\u2019t walked on the foot since \u2026 Good Lord! Over 3 months.\u00a0 <\/span>Crutches are going to be so much easier now that I can put some weight on my foot.\u00a0 <\/span>Although the scooter is still my main squeeze until I can walk.<\/span><\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n
And for those of you who are as confused as I was on the how do you know how much weight is 50% weight.\u00a0 <\/span>25% is basically foot down on the floor and using it to keep your balance. 50% is slight more complicated and involves a scale and memory.\u00a0 <\/span>And for me, sucking it up and hopping up [insert laugh track here] on the scale.<\/span><\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n
So that is it from the trenches for now.\u00a0 <\/span>Thanks for tuning in!<\/span><\/div>\n
Love, Hugs & Other signs of affection one can do in public.<\/span><\/div>\n

PS \u2013 if you want me to stop sending you these things, just send me an e-mail telling me to STOP! You can\u2019t take me anymore. <\/span><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
