Twenty-four weeks [1] post surgery

[edschweppe]

It's now been twenty-four weeks since my knee surgery. And I can actually use both knees now in going up and down stairs! Progress!

Not yet fully healed, mind, since I really need a strong bannister or two to hold onto for support while putting a load on my left knee. But fully healed is now in sight.

Still no fancy medical usericon. Blame a local shortage of round tuits.

[1] Technically, twenty-four weeks and one day, since my surgery was on a Friday and today's a Saturday.

Congratulations! It's weird how big things like that can fade into the past.

Hm. Now I'm reminded of http://xkcd.com/1477/ - no bad thing.

Oh, I remind myself that my knee still isn't fully up to speed pretty much every day. Especially now that Boston has two-plus feet of snow on the ground, and the sidewalks are only mostly cleared...
