What?? Ten and a Half Weeks Post Op!?

Time flies when you're healing I suppose? Where oh where do I begin?

Ok. So I confronted my perfectionist surgeon about my squiggle suture. He admitted that I caught him. His assistant did it. UGH! But, he patted himself about on the back about what a great job he did. I wouldn't have it any other way though. A surgeon needs to be confident and full of himself in my opinion. I don't want a surgeon who is nervous. He needs to know that he can do the job right. Because honestly, I'd rather not go through this more than once per hip...

So he told me crutching for a total of 4 weeks and then walking with crutches for 2 more weeks. So that would mean 4 more weeks of crutches...But of course much to the dismay of the parents and close friends, I didn't use my crutches the last two weeks. Mostly just when I went out.

I saw him again at 6 weeks post op. He showed me my operative pics, which didn't print well, but they got the idea across. I'm still lazy and haven't scanned them in. I will eventually...

So the following week I went to my favorite place in the world... DISNEYLAND! I won a sneak preview for the new Toy Story ride. And of course, "wifey" accompanied me. Who else would I go with!? We had a blast...for the most part! The scooters we rented of course were a blast! I need to budget that into every trip. There were a couple slip ups here and there, but all in all it was ok.

After we got back...I started physical therapy... The first two sessions were actually pretty good. The next couple were NOT! Those people are slave drivers!! But I have to admit, it helped. So I'm glad I did it. Last week I went in because I was still having pain and I wasn't sure if that was normal and such. So he examined me, twisted my leg around almost making me cry, and told me it was normal. So that was nice to hear.

I only have a couple more weeks of being off of work left... Back to work on the 28th so far. So for now I will soak up the sun, (even if it is clouded by the gross smoke) watch Sex and the City, and finish the quilt I'm working on and start a new one!
