Re: I'm still here
This was my first time to stand on 2 feet since March 5. This leg was for fitting and adjusting, had to leave it there. By next Wednesday I will have my new leg. Hot Dang!

Re: I'm still here
It was great, after learning how to stand and step properly I walked through the office, (with the cpo and just pushing a walker to catch myself if I stumbled) down the mall a short distance. Then talked a half dozen stairs up and down. Then my leg said it had enough. Total up time was probably an hour. Burned me out, will take a lot of work to get back in shape.Ranch Dog wrote:How did the walking go with the test leg?

That smile says it all. Just think an hour today and a year from now walking out to the 100 yard target will be easy as pie.

Re: I'm still here
Glad to see your starting to walk again. My oldest brother just go his new leg in Dec. and this afternoon he and I laid two pallets of Sod at his house. Sense he got the hang of walking on it, he hasn't slowed down a bit. I'm Sending out more prayers for you and Bee keeper, Good luck with the new leg and keep the faith.
