Wow! That really reflects a strong ability to bounce back to some normalcy after total chaos. Hope you get much better.

I don't know about you but I have found when you are in such extreme pain and you suddenly discover you can make a new move It tends to go one way or the other with no inbetween from either agony or extasy which for such an insignificant move seems ridiculous but that's it

[lureswinger]

Well things are obviously going the right way yesterday I had a visit from the physio. Who said there wasn't much he could suggest as I was coming on so well some people he had seen weren't able to get out of bed at the same point I was at and would just leave me for another week

[BuckeyeFan]

Sending our continued best wishes on your recovery.

For the past few days I keep going to the bottom of the stairs with my zimmer and stepping up 2 or 3 steps getting some practise I darent go any higher because if my leg colapses I don't fancy falling all the way down the stairs and I don't want anyone to help me as I don't want to wind up dragging them down with me if I fall

[Nakamova]

yes, don't overdo, be careful as you recover!

[lureswinger]

Yes I got a mouthful off the wife the day after I got home from hospital for going upstairs and then back down nearly falling down them and taking her with me so I gave up being that stupid and thought I'd leave it at 2 or 3 steps for a few weeks till I can handle them better

[lureswinger]

Well peoples first of all I'd like to say a big thank you to all of you that have bee concerned with my well being since the accident and although its not over yet today the wife and I went out to thoresby market so that I could join in to do our bird of prey demo and despite being in a lot of pain I was over the moon to be back out doing demos with my birdies

I had to go to fracture clinic today and was asked to get an xray before the clinic when I finally got into clinic I was showed the xray of my pelvis this was the first time I had seen what the surgeons had done and at the base of my spine I had 4 two inch long bolts lower down at the bottom of my pelvis was a piece of metal about 10 inches long bolted back and forth about nine times
But despite all this I think I am doing well I keep being told it could take 6-9 months before I can walk again but so far its been 6 weeks since the accident and I'm spending a lot of time up on a zimmer frame and I have begun sneaking odd steps in without it so I'm hoping to be free of this thing as soon as possible

[lureswinger]

Great one hit by a transit then six weeks later I've just fallen down the stairs took me about twenty minutes to get up as I wasn't sure if I had done any more damage to my pelvis but hey the rag doll way works again I have only bruised my feet a bit but other than that I'm fine I bounce better than that

[lureswinger]

Right now its back to the Garth Brooks outlook on life “Gonna live when I'm alive an sleep when I'm dead “ yes I know I've only just escaped the later lol
