I may have broken my foot update...I can walk again!

Oh Happy Day!!

It'll be great sleeping without discomfort! I know, when I slept in a certain position, I did feel slight pain, but then, it sure was easier to switch around! I felt like a toddler when I started walking again. It was so funny and strange. I was allowed to walk with the boot a little bit (and of course I took it to the extreme ). It took a while for my foot to look and feel normal again, but it's great news that the doc is satisfied! Onward and Upward! I'm very happy for you!

I'm pleased to hear you are coming on.
I' sure it will feel great to be back at work!

It was really great going back to work this week. I never imagined I would feel like that. Thanks to Arnie I am off today but that was almost a blessing I was worn out.

Most of my coworkers had a hard time not laughing at my knee walker because I squeek when I walk on it.

It felt good to come home worn out though. Its funny when you are away your brain gets stagnant, I had to have several passwords reset several times

My doctor said the boot is more for protection than anything so at home I don't wear it, its annoying.

My next appointment is aug 6th and at that time I will get the green light to walk again, most likely like a toddler but it will be great.

I have a funny story, I have been walking a little on my heel, my doctor said this would be okay. Well I waited until it was exactly 2 months post surgery before I started doing this, so that was July 26.

Anyway this evening I was riding my knee walker out to my car at work in the parking lot and the stupid thing broke, a car was getting ready to back up, I got scared they wouldn't see me so I picked the walker up and carried it to my car all the while limping on my heel with my huge boot thing on

I returned the piece of junk knee walker to walmart, it was 400 dollars, and I had hoped to be able to sell it after I am healed but it broke in many areas, tonights being the show stopper.

I go in Thursday for xrays and hopefully the green light to walk again.

Ill cross my fingers and say prayer for you. I do hope you'll be walking sooner then later.

The suspense ...

So ... WHAT did Wally do or say???

Did you get a refund, buncha grief, sad tail, or WHAT?
Hopefully you got MONEY ...

Clue us in, Please.

The girl at the counter just gave me the refund, my husband tried to show her the broken parts and she clearly didn't care. If it turns out I can't walk yet tomorrow I may just rent one, for today I will use a walker that I had from when my Mom was alive.

The girl at the Wally counter just gave me the refund ...

Hmmmmm ... Good Deal!

So Wally "loaned" you the junky $400 knee walker for FREE ...
Yup - Good Deal!

(Good thing you didn't break anything else when the walker fell apart!)
