But here is piece of good news: I was actually WALKING today. I had a different therapist and I told her I didn't want to hop with the walker and she asked me if I could walk woth the walker and I did! I think I'll have no trouble with the stairs, once I get rid of this boot. (picture is on the wrong leg, btw)

to sleep, perchance to dream
I'm sleep deprived. Last night my roommate was into "riding" her bed for twenty minute stretches. By that I mean she was using the electric bed raising/lowering controls. I tried to nap yesterday afternoon and I was wakened to report on how many bowel movements I had during that shift.

It was about this time last year that I was getting out of my boot (ruptured achilles tendon). I have a pretty good idea of what your saying about just being able to walk. An injury can be a humbling experience, can't it? I know the thing that was impressed upon me Cathy, was just being able to do simple things that an able bodied person takes for granted, like walking, or bathing, carrying a meal from the fridge to the table.
Anywho... I don't mean to ramble. Just wanted to stop in and say hi. I hope your physical therapy gets you up and back to normal ASAP.
Grace and peace be with you.
