My PT got more aggressive today. My foot is bothering me a bit.
I rode the stationary bike for one hour at level three today. 9.6 miles.
Until tomorrow...

DOWNGRADED TO A CANE
Today at PT I got some good news. I can get off the crutch and use a cane. This is progress! I still have to use the crutch in crowds to make sure I don't get stepped on or knocked over. I don't have a cane so I emailed my neighbors to ask them if any of them have one laying around. No sense buying one to use for a few weeks if one of my neighbors has one in

Have a great day!
Thanks Wren. I used the website to check my borrowed cane. The cane is a perfect fit. You are a great friend looking out for me!
