Into the 4th week. Dr Cormac gave the green light for me to off crutch, and to do double leg calf raises. I doubt he was happy about me being off crutch, but since there's no pain might as well. But uncle thinks that it's too early to do double leg calf raises. I still can't do a lot of things. I'm starting to hate the leg extension machine, but it's the only thing that keeps my muscles working. I have a lot of time, I have a lot of time. No rush.
Netball suddenly seems to not be part of my life. I think the brain has subconsciously packed it and put it away. I don't know what I'm coming back for, I have no aim.
I think everything has been very bearable these days. Days without rehab feels kinda empty. Went for my first shopping in 4 weeks. Very happy, but the end result? Swollen ankle. Brought it down with ice immediately. Can't afford it.
I'm loving this 2 weeks break, with no worries about school (ok maybe projs). Kinda keep forgetting to take my daily dosage of glucosamine. Gotta be real disciplined about it.
Christmas shopping not done. Cards not done. Gifts not done. Awesome rehab company. Wonderful times. Hope I can do rehab forever! But uncle's leaving.. I don't know when :( Kinda rly hope he doesn't, till we all "graduate". Aye. It's Christmas, be merry!
Notes to self (What I wanna ask Doc)
- When can off cast
- When to get back full range
- Recovery period
(P.S. I hate how the surgeon always interrupts me when I speak. I'm the one paying here, hello?)
BE MERRY!
