Walking Boot
Hell all!!! Yes I am in my walking boot and I am loving it. I loved the opportunity to be able to take the boot off, and just relax my foot. I have noticed that I can put pressure on my foot with no pain. I can also, and this is a secret so don’t tell anyone! I can walk without the boot on, I can even put on a flip flop and walk with that. Now of course, I can’t bend my foot, and I have to kind of drag it or step with my good foot and then pick my involved foot up to move. Now before anyone says anything, yes, I know I am not suppose to be doing this, but you all know, I don’t always do what I am suppose to do. I do still do my stretching exercises that the doctor said I should do, sitting with my foot up flexing and getting that tendon loosened up and ready to get back to usage.
Yes, I know everyone is wondering have I taken anymore pictures, and if you weren’t wondering that, then you should have. The answer is yes, I took a couple of pictures, two are kind of action pictures of me walking, without the boot!
This is the most recent picture of my wound. I am going to have to get some scar begone, because I can’t run around with a scar, and especially one that is that long and big.
Feet planted on the groud. This has been one of the best experiences for me. Being able to have both feet on the ground and being able to stand on both of them is just great. I am able to get into the shower and wash and feel comfortable and not worry about slipping. Well, worry a little less than back when I was in the cast.
I am walking, just kind of wanted to show you how I have to walk around. Yes, yes, I know I shouldn’t be doing this, but anyone can tell you this. I know my body, and I know what my limitations will allow me to do or not to do. I will admit, after walking around for a while I am a little sore, but each day I do it, I am less and less sore.
The final picture of me walking. Once again, I don’t want anyone to think that this is normal, because as you all know, nothing has been normal with me or this whole process.
In conclusion of this post. I don’t want people to think that I am bragging or trying to rub my somewhat success in anybodies face, I just want to share my accomplishments. I am not going to lie, during this whole process, I feel I have been very lucky and hope that my string of luck continues. This injury has been a process and a process that I am going to continue to fight and struggle through. If there is anyone who just tore there tendon, or just had surgery remember this. In time, you will get through it, in the beginning, you will feel like you will never get back to walking or will never be the person you were, but don’t except that, because in time you will. Plus if you have a blog and you start thinking like that, I will jump on your case, because there is only room for one person to be depressed :-p

I’m jealous once again. I get to do what you do (hopefully) in 2 weeks.
Congrats on the walking (but take it easy you rebel) and the state of that scar. It is quite an improvement over your previous pictures.
You are on your way brother.
Hope to catch up to you soon.

I’ve only gotten my lovely walking boot/cast this past Monday, and here we are Friday (which is 4 weeks post-op). Last night, I finally felt brave enough to take off the boot and look at the scar and took the first photos. I’m not quite ready to stand or even attempt to walk, but your post is inspiring! Thanks and be careful!
