A Cane! A Cane!

Yesterday I got a cane! Yippee, no crutches except for bedtime and if I'm not wearing shoes. You all don't know, but they tried to make my legs the same length, but they made it almost 1/2" longer. Now my left leg is 1/2" longer than my right leg (oposite problem from before surgery when my left leg was 1/2" shorter). Anyways, I am now 5'4" instead of 5'3 1/2". Score! Now my drivers license is incorrect, funny huh. I had to go and get an insert for the right shoe yesterday so it doesn't feel like I'm tottering over on a long leg, and it worked really well. Hopefully by next week I'll be walking normally and then maybe I can go back to work.

Wait, so now the short leg is actually the long leg?
Waaa-waaah (trombone style)
