Broken Ankle update

 So its been 8 weeks and 3 days since I broke my ankle.

8 long weeks.

The pic above shows the scar on my inside ankle.

Under this one is 2 screws holding the tip of my tibia on.

Its 6cm long.

Yes, I measured it with a ruler.

 Cankle anyone?

 Right leg has lost ALOT of muscle tone.

Shame my other leg isn't this skinny.

This scar is the biggie.

Its 10cm long.

Underneath it, you can feel plates and screws holding the tip of my fibula on.

Ew.

Overall, pain is at an absolute minimum.

Unless I stand on it - which I'm allowed to do now.

Had my first physio session yesterday, it was soooo painful.

Am going back tomorrow and Friday.

Yes, I suppose that makes me a masochist.

Am trying to walk with crutches, it is slow going but I know I'll get there.

Its learning to walk all over again, learning to trust in myself and my ability to do it.

Its hard.

I don't like it.
