75% PWB and 10 degree lift

Seem to be coming along. This past Wednesday I followed the doc’s instructions and removed a heel lift from the boot and moved up to 75% of my body weight on the injured leg as I walk with crutches. Started with 3 lifts and down to one…this is the first time it has been the most uncomfortable strapping into the boot. Now I know why all the advice from others about doing a little stretching and rubbing the tendon to warm it up when getting out of bed. WOW, what a sensation of moving down another 10 degrees. By next week for my follow up, the doc expects the last lift will be out and my foot will be perpendicular in the boot.
