DAYS 283-295 RECOVERY


I was expecting a good outcome after the x-rays of my ankle last week, but that didn't happen. After three months my ankle is still showing only minimal bone growth.  The doc feels my age has much to do with it.  Seventy year old bones don't heal as fast as fifteen year old bones.  At this point I'm just hoping that it heals eventually and I'd like for "eventually" to come soon.  The doc wants to see me again at the end of February for more x-rays.  In the meantime I have to continue wearing the ankle brace.  I was fitted with a knee brace that's supposed to give me some support when walking downhill which I do a lot of here. Once the weather clears up a bit, I want to try walking the road to see how far I can get.
