Update on my busted femur. [View all]

The surgery was Wednesday. Thursday, with help from a physical therapist and an occupational therapist, I was able to sit straight up at the edge of the bead and place both feet on the floor. Progress! Friday, I moved my bowels and, with help from the therapists, I was able to stand, pivot, and sit in a mobile recliner. Yesterday I was transported to a rehab facility where I will learn to walk again. It is a comfortable place. I have a private room, the food is home cooked, and today for the first time, I am out of bed and dressed in something other than a hospital johnny. I'll be watching my beloved Celtics take on the evil '76ers tonight. Foxtrot Delta Tango!
