Just thought I will let you know I am still in physical therapy. I am challenging myself to walk a little further each day. I am also telling the therapists what I need to learn to get back to normal. Pain management can be a challenge, but I am hanging in there okay.
Take care everyone.

Delaney and others who asked about pain meds.
I can't tolerate Vicadin and other heavy duty pain meds because they made me too dizzy and tired to walk and do therapy, so I am managing on Motrin, Tylenol and topical solutions. Sometimes we just have to find ways to work through the pain.
Take care everyone.

Soooo hoping you're able to walk pain-free through the paradise where you live!

Picturing you on the beach at Waikiki!
