Linking to Tom's Signs: https://backroadstraveller.blogspot.com/
I saw this sign when I was last at the physio and I really liked it. Very apt!!
I had my hospital appointment today and got discharged. He was happy with my progress and was amazed at how well I am doing after 4.5 months and considering how serious the injury was. He was impressed I was walking unaided too! He said to continue with the physio for the next few months at least. He said whatever I am doing to keep doing it as I am doing so well and regaining movement in the ankle! He did say, though, it'll never be back to 100% but we are aiming for 70% or 80%. I said to him I am walking and driving and happy to be able to do this. So all in all a good report.


Que bom que você está se recuperando bem!

Congratulations on the great progress!
ReplyDeleteI am glad you had a good report and making great progress.
ReplyDeleteExcellent! I'm very happy to hear this good news. If we work our bodies and do what the PT says to do we can come back. I'm with you, I will take 80% as long as I can walk and drive. Have a great day.
ReplyDeleteLove that sign and happy to know you are discharged!-Christine cmlk79.blogspot.com
ReplyDeleteGreat news indeed!
ReplyDelete...Ananka, be well and follow the doc's instructions!!!
ReplyDeleteI'm so happy for you that your doctor's appointment went so well! 70 or 80 % recovery is a good average. But honestly, I would still aim for 100%. Doctors don't know everything: When I suffered a complicated arm fracture many years ago, the surgeon thought I'd probably never be able to lift my arm properly again. Back then, physical therapy wasn't routinely prescribed, but I did gentle water aerobics on my own initiative, and when I came for my next check-up and showed the doctor that my arm was fully functional again, he said in amazement, "That's unbelievable!"
ReplyDeleteFor a while afterward, I had problems with shoulder dislocations in that arm (also a consequence of the accident), but I managed to get rid of those with exercises, too. Using your muscles and keeping your ligaments supple is definitely very important. I wish you a continued good recovery.
Thank you so much for your thoughtful comment on my blog.
All the best from Austria, Traude
That sounds great, that you can drive and walk again. The physiotherapy will certainly help even more.
ReplyDeleteThat’s great news!
ReplyDeleteI like that sign.
ReplyDeleteWell done on your progress, sounds good to continue with the physio for a little longer.
You have done so well.
All the best Jan
