Sep. 25th, 2006 05:59 pmi had another ortho check-up today, and now i'm allowed to bear some weight on my leg again! baby steps. it is hardly walking, but it is something. and they gave me a cane i can use in a couple weeks, which is neat. i will finally be able to, say, buy a cup of coffee and bring it to class. i really miss normal things like that.
in preparation for transferring my records to the university hospital where i'll have my physical therapy starting next monday, i had to go pick up a disk of my xrays today. so here are some xrays for you:

7/11/06, evening of the accident.

9/6/06, at my previous check-up. best view of all the hardware.
also, i can now feel around by the scars and actually feel where the metal is, under the skin. mainly i can feel the screw heads, maybe the edge of the long bracket. it is a very weird sensation.
