Hi Everyone, just back from a 2 week holiday in Taba Heights (Egypt), which is part of the Sinai region.

I was really glad I progressed out of a cast to a removable boot just before going away, because it allowed me to sunbath without the boot on and also to swim & even snorkel in the Red Sea on 3 occassions!  The coral and the brightly coloured fish were spectacular and being able to swim was a real lift to morale.

The day after returning I had my latest check-up at the hospital & the Doc was happy that the tendon was back in one piece.  He was happy to move my foot up by 22.5 degrees to a neutral position with no plantar or dorsi-flexion. I am now officially PWB with a view to going FWB in about a week (although I now hobble around the house without any crutches when nobody is looking!).

Talk to you soon.

Chris
