Determination
I put down my crutch today and took my first steps without any assistance. Talk about odd feeling. The nurse said to walk normal. I don't think she's ever had all her muscle mass gone and then put a huge boot on her leg. NORMAL? It's going to take a lot more practice before I'm comfortable walking in public that's for sure. Besides the fact that I can only do a few steps before I need to take a break. Everyday is improvement though, so somehow I guess I'll figure it out!

It would be weird for something as common as walking to all of a sudden be so difficult I think. Congratulations on your first steps.
I almost added to my blog that it's weird having to think so much to stand up and take a few steps! I told a friend today that I feel like an Ox in a China shop! But as my title states "determination". I am determined so I will somehow figure this out too.

Golden took my comment right out of my head...LOL!
I am glad that everyday is improving for you!
T is doing great - she even drove up to walgreens and the bank tonight. We went out at about midnight so there wouldn't be much traffic, so she got a chance to feel out the break and gas pedals to see how much pressure she has to use.
I bet driving would be a little rough. Can you feel the pressure applied to gas and breaks?
