The cast is off...

The cast came off today and the X rays showed an impressive array of screws and plates. It also showed that the operation was a success, but now I have to take it easy and live in my moonboot. I can gradually put weight on the foot and start moving the ankle to get some mobility back in it.

The best news is that I can take a shower and will not have to "top and bottom" in the washbasin... enough said.

Now that I can shower I will slowly start putting some time in on the spinning bike and I hope to be back on the real deal in a couple of weeks (about 3 weeks to get all the ligaments strong enough)

The Finisher's dinner at Diemersfontein was a great occasion and I hope to be there next year as a 2011 finisher. I really enjoyed the few days with The Pretty One in Cape Town, visiting all the cousins and uncles and aunts.



So tomorrow it is 100% back in the real world and about high time I do some real work...

  1. So glad to hear you can stand on your own two feet again! Just have to say thank you again for being at the end at Diemersfontein. When I saw you there, I knew it was over, reality was sinking in. Dit was maar tough, maar hier vertel ek die storie.
