Nights are getting better, Jack slept through most of the entire night (at least without me knowing otherwise). The swelling has gone down even more along with the bruising. He's weight bearing a bit more this morning which is a small, but good sign of progress. 1w from today to get his staples out, can't wait for that. Then the next big milestone will be normal weight bearing, hopefully no later than week 4. 49 days to X-rays to verify bone healing, then the true rehab can start. I may have already said this, but this leg seems to be a little worse for wear, and taking a bit longer to heal (looking mostly at the weight bearing aspect), but I could just have easily have forgotten the first leg experience details already (wait, I have a blog). Right now laying on the floor, tummy full, in foma (food coma).
Well I just went back and checked the May and June posts, so I may be wrong, this may be the same state his other leg was in. By Friday of that surgery (would be tomorrow) that leg looked about like this one does now, and he was still limping, so maybe things are running along at the same pace.
