Hello my sweet fellow gimpies....thanks for checking in. Yep I am moving right along, albeit drudgingly. The surgeon and PT say I am doing well. I am walking with one crutch and just starting with the brace unlocked. I am leaving the NY area in 3 weeks and plan to be in my new, smaller, functional ACL Don Joy brace and walking with a cane maybe. I cannot wait to get rid of this gigantic brace. My insurance is not paying for the functional brace. Um...I think they are pretty sick of paying for me being an idiot.I am driving and riding my motorcycle, even though I am "not supposed to." I still have no stamina but work out while sitting on my bed and also am lifting weights still. I am also riding the stationary bike so that is pretty cool. My leg looks so deformed still so it will be quite a while before I can build up my quad to size. On day at a time.I walked about 4,000 steps yesterday and that was wayyyy over my limit so I need to keep it down to about 1,000 still. I cannot wait to walk again.Hope you all are doing well and am sending out positive and healing vibes:)Susan
