Hi All,
I know that I posted that I got a cane and I did, I just couldn't use it yet. I tried and tried, but to no avail. Frustrating! Today I had more torture therapy and I used the cane. I now can practice everyday, with supervision of course, so it should hopefully be only another week and then I can go back to work, I hope. I have to be stable on the cane before I can go back to work. I tell you, I feel very frustrated that this is taking so long. Also, I feel stupid for not having the ability to walk right in the first place, I walked before surgery, why can't I walk now? The ring master of torture therapy tells me that it is my hip flexor muscle, which is so tight, holding everything up. I asked him if we should inject it with botox so it would relax (just a joke of course, but a desperate one) for 6 months or so and he laughed at me (he got the joke), but of course he promptly told me no. I knew the answer before he said it, but now you all can see how frustrated I am. I know it will be over soon and I need to relax so I will.
I hope everyone is doing well now that the holidays are over. Today is a good day. We have a new president, I can walk, kind of, with a cane, and life is good. All things I am grateful for. Take care of yourselves.
Robin

MOM- You are supposed to be gimpy when you've had part of your skeleton hacked out and replaced. You are part of the Borg now.
Also, Serena's totally right about not wanting her child to push people out of his chair. It starts with chairs, ends with windows. (Not really.)
Aunt Robin, how do I become a follower of your blog? It won't seem to let me.
Never mind, I figured it out. Love you
