We’ve reached some milestones this week. Jasmine took her first wobbly steps yesterday and today Andy did too!
It’s hard to believe that it has been 12 weeks since the accident when Andy fell sixteen feet off the roof and broke his hip. Back then “No weight on it for 12 weeks” sounded like an eternity but here we are at the end of it and Andy is starting to walk again!
He is supposed to only put forty pounds on it a week until all his weight is on it. Something about letting his muscles work up to it, but he has been excercising and the muscles worked fine.
He’s been walking without any crutches at all some today. Don’t tell the doctor.
He probably shouldn’t, but how am I supposed to stop him? He’s an adult.
We have one last checkup next week. Hopefully he won’t overdo it until then.
