I owe an update

I am still getting about on crutches. I do not think I have used the walker for about two months.

Some of the pain in my left leg - the one with the most metal - has faded with time. There is still pain, it is not as severe as it was. When I looked at my feet my first week in the hospital both were red, blue, and purple from my toes to a bit above the ankle. They were heavily bruised. I was amazed there were no bones broken in my feet. After all this time I am getting more sensation in my feet. There are still some numb spots but it is getting better.

I had an evaluation in physiotherapy today. After some measurements it shows I have gained a bit of range of motion with my knees and hips. That was a bit of a surprise as I thought I hit the wall in that regard. A therapist had told me that I am doing too much at times. Most of the time I feel like I am hardly doing anything. It does not take much to tire me out. I am incrementally getting better and I want to be back doing some hiking in May of next year. I think that is an attainable goal.

The time has come for the much anticipated bale post
