Thanks for the positive comments everyone. The bottom line is that the human body is a thing of wonder. Today is my 2 month anniversary of my ankle break. I couldn't even step onto my bathroom scale and was still scooting up the stairs on my rear-end when I got out of the boot 2 1/2 weeks ago. Today I can walk across a room without a limp, (but not much further without a limp...yet), walk up stairs normally without holding onto the handrail, and ride my bike for an hour at a time. Here's to the amazing, self healing, human body!
