Moving right along.
I’m 4 weeks post re-rupture and taking it a day at a time.
I am driving, in 2 shoes with little or no discomfort.
2 years around this time I was getting my 2nd cast and housebound.
There was pain too, I remember.
So this is weird in a way.
I’m flying out today to Illinois to visit my daughter who is a Freshman at college there.
I’ve never flown this injured before, I have a wheelchair escort requested because there is NO way I can walk barefoot through the metal detector.
I’m a bit worried they’ll give me grief, the DR didn’t feel I needed a note from him.
When I booked my flight I wasn’t injured and Himself (my husband) insisted I choose the cheaper flight that would have had me drive a little over 1.5 hours.
Instead I lobbied for airport and city closer to school where I’d only had to drive for the 20-30 minute on the expressway.
Way back when I first tore the Achilles I did drive 4 hours each way with it but I didn’t know I had the injury, now that I know I’m a wuzz!
Take care, see you on the other side of next week!
