About 3 or 4 weeks ago I got my spika splint. However, I still can't get into the van because I can't stand up because I'm kinda weak from sitting for so long and my leg still kinda hurts when I do. Hmmm....I wonder why? LOL!!!
Tuesday I got my bone growth stimulator that will help my leg heal faster. Its small electric currents, but I can't feel them at all. I wear it 24/7 or until the doctor says I don't need it any more.
I can move from my bed to my wheel chair with my mom's help. So I can get outta my bed and today we walked up to the grocery store which is about 3 blocks away. Well I was in my wheel chair!!! LOL!!!!
On Monday or Tuesday we might be getting a wheel chair accessible van!!! I was planning on getting out yesterday, but the company we were gonna rent from was too picky about a major credit card. I was really sad that I didn't get out, but if we get a van on Monday or Tuesday...sweet!

{{rita}} glad you are able to get out a bit. soon you will be strong enough to stand up & be more mobile.
that will be nice when your mom gets the van.does she just rent one for a day or 2 at a time when mostly needed?
have a great weekend & fabulous easter!
We are trading in the van we have now for this so this will just be our van. Its the same yr as the one we have now, a 2002. I'm not sure what brand it is, other than its a burgundy.
Thanks, I hope so too. I'm just getting so tired of this.
Hi Rita...good to hear you were up and out...must feel really good....
Hope you get that van next week....how nice that will be~
Take good care of yourself~~
Hey thanks!!!! I am.
Aaaaa..good..you're enjoying some sweet taste of freedom in getting out of the house!! So glad to hear that!
Great on getting the new van!
I know you'll take good care of yourself and I hope your leg heals fast! Thank you for the update.
Hi Rita, I didn't realize you were still so weak from all of this.

That bone growth stimulator sounds really neat!!
I wear it near the brake.
Thursday and Sunday we got some nasty weather, but not like what Tennessee has had, thank God.
