June 1, more progress

I feel so free today!
I was able to do some gardening yesterday, wearing the AirCast and leaning here and there.
I walked around a bit barefoot--just inside the house--and felt things were going well.
Today, I'm actually wearing 2 shoes! Crocs, as recommended by Dr. Brunet.  My foot is still slightly swollen, and a bit tender, but I have feeling in pretty much all areas, and it works well. Hooray!

Last Cast

So, on Tuesday, May 20, I went to the Plaster Room and the X-Ray, and it was decided that I could graduate to an AirCast, which I had to pay for. It does work very well to protect my toes, and I can take it off to let the toes wiggle, to bathe, and to massage my swollen foot. Pretty slick!
I also can put the right foot down, gently, but I don't do much of that. When I'm going barefoot to the bathroom (from my own bed: I moved upstairs on Tuesday!) I use the walker, but I don't have to hop anymore; I can just shuffle. The end is near!  Final graduation should be June 10.
