Haven't posted anything for a while because I'm lazy. Last week I started going to PT twice a week instead of three times. I'm keeping up with things at home as well. I saw the doctor on Monday and he said everything was looking good. I'm still not suppose to start doing any snap kicks or pivot on my right leg yet. I go back in September.


I've been busy packing since we bought a house and will be moving in on Aug 15. Rowlf has been getting in the way since he likes to bite the boxes and be generally under foot. He went to the vet yesterday and he is now 31 lbs.

Physical therapy is still going well. I have started doing a little jogging. It's frustrating because I can't take long strides, so I'm jogging at the pace that I would usually walk at. Going slow makes for a very awkward stride. When added to the fact that my shin occasionally hurts while I'm doing it, the whole jogging thing is all around uncomfortable. But I'm only going for 5-6 minutes at a time and I can tell it has improved since the first time I did it. Yesterday we also did some more with hopping (front to back and side to side). Then, since that seemed to be going well, we did hopping on one foot. First the left then the right. We only did 15 seconds oer set. I have trouble getting any height off the right leg, which makes control difficult. The hopping will have to be something I start doing more frequently at home. I don't have therapy again until Friday so I'll have to do extra at home this week.
