Swimming with the boot

Posted , 2 users are following.

Today I figured out at a water park that I could swim with a boot on. I'm 50% weight wearing after my 4th ankle surgery. I'm sick and tired of not doing anything. I didn't go down any waterslides but I was able to be in the waive pool for hours. Best of all..... I didn't sink and was able to tread water😳😳😀 with the boot on.

      Yes!!!!! The big air boot that I pump up, it was great but I must say I did think I was gonna sink! The boot goes a little below my knee.

      Oh no!!! Did not stay dry, I didn't try since I have 3 boots. I did take it off when I got of the water and had my knee scooter to get around. It was worth it. Going out of my mind with boredom.
