Three weeks in and starting to feel a bit better about progress. Physio i was 112 on bend and 96 on straight, not where I need to be but progress made. Starting to get around better, get to get rid of dreaded ted socks in four more days!! Only complaint is pain that sets in at night and trying to get comfortable. Feeling much more optimistic than first two weeks. Everyone, hang in there. Love seeing your comments and suggestions.

Please stay positive...it will be hard to do that...harder than you think. There are advances, setbacks and plateaus (the worst since you think you'll be stuck there forever). Be prepared for all of them. This will not be easy...this will not be fast...

Stay strong, eat healthy, lose weight, HYDRATE a lot, do the PT for the ROM, hit the gym to rebuild your quads, don't compare yourself to anyone else's progress, ICE-ICE-ICE, take your meds, sleep as long as you want to, feel guilty about NOTHING, if someone gives you crap, beat them senseless with your cane!
