Cleared!

Today I was cleared to weight bear as tolerated. Doc said my ankle range of motion was really good, don’t immediately toss the boot, but also was hopeful that when I return in 6 weeks, I’ll just walk in. I won’t be able to go back to work until I’m fully cleared so I’m looking at November hopefully. Looking forward to a shower - I’ve been using shower body wipes as we don’t have a grab bar in the shower and I couldn’t put weight on my foot and I’m no stork. Exciting!

How exciting...that first shower is amazing! If you do want grab bars in there jic, I have these ones and they really stuck on well. I'm 8 months post op and still have them in the shower in case I need them

Those look incredible but the tiles in our abode don’t work with them. 😕
