Well, yesterday's X rays revealed that the bone is now in much better alignment so that is good. I have to see the clinic again next Thursday, and, if all is still well, I have another three weeks in the full length cast before graduating to a new one that will allow me to bend the knee. That will mean more flexibility in getting around and I will be able to be a passenger in a car. Have to learn the technique of crutches too!!
Thanks for the messages. It's a bleak time but made better by well wishers!
