Dear Family & Friends,
Celebrate another milestone with me! ✨
It was the first time going out this weekend without my crutches. ππΌ
I’m still a bit wobbly, move slowly and lean on my hubby a lot. But I did it! π€©
…thinking back to lying in the hospital bed. I used to wonder when/how/if I’d walk again. Getting daily injections for thrombosis prevention, because I needed to lay on the sofa - keeping my leg elevated. My leg muscles were so weak I could barely raise them.
My ankle still swells up a lot. My doctor assured me that it’s normal. He also said that it could take up to a year before I feel like myself again.
I’m in awe of our bodies and its capabilities. And beyond grateful for the love, support & encouragement from far & wide.
A big hug & much love to you all for the week ahead. π€❤️π
