Five weeks...

Well it's been just over five weeks since surgery. Three more to go on crutches. There is not much to report. Physical therapy is my favorite part of the week. I like the stretching and being able to move around. Every week a new muscle wakes up and I feel closer to walking on my own. The scars are healing up pretty well. They look pretty prominent now, but I know with time they will disappear. The scars on my left side are almost not noticeable at all. 

I stopped by Sam's yesterday. It was nice to see some of my old coworkers and boss. I'm definitely missing the people. 

Tomorrow I plan on going to the gym. I can do the upright stationary bike and my at home exercises. I still can't do a whole lot. I'm still in the "take it easy" stage. We want the bone to heal up nicely before anything else. Muscles are still waking up and we are working to regain strength before I start walking. 

I'm able to get in and out of the shower alone. I'm still using a chair, so I don't have to bring the crutches in with me. I can put my own clothes on too! That's exciting! Every day I grow more and more independent! 

That's all I got for now...
