Knee surgery

[Catrin]

Things continue to improve! My knee is grumpy today but yesterday I walked 2 miles round trip for a work meeting, had a PT session, and a scaled kettlebell training session. My walking pace is about 85% of my normal pace. I will take it 😎

I bet you are glad you had the surgery.

You know, while I've still some healing to do that may take months to complete, I think that I am. Even if the knee doesn't get back to quite what it was prior to the fall, in some ways it is already better. The knee had no "margin for error" as far as resources from which to draw from to recover from the brutal fall and while I knew the knee was bad, I didn't know just HOW bad.

Winding Road and I just hiked for a little over 3 miles Knee feels great, though of course I do wear a brace for hiking. We didn't do too badly considering we are both recovering from surgery!

Glad the healing is going well! Now don't tempt WindingRoad into overdoing it.

We focus on not allowing the other to over-do things - we seem to be about the same place as far as what our bodies will tolerate so we are are well matched for hiking together. I'm amazed at how much she can do only 2 weeks out - she has actually been walking far longer (time-wise) than I've been.
