The Happy Dance - 3 More Weeks

(Click on picture to make her dance) I just got back from my follow up appointment with the orthopedic doctor and had an x-ray. He says I am healing nicely and no longer have to sleep with the aircast on because my fracture is so stable. He recommended that I start some range of motion exercises. The best part is that he said only 3 weeks to go! I will then be out of the aircast and put in a lace up support that will fit inside my regular shoe. I can then ride my bike and drive a car.

My new return to the ride (and independence) date is January 2, 2007

Happy New Year Everyone

I couldn't post a comment to wish you a speedy recovery back when you first got hurt (stinkin' blogger beta b.s.) but I'm glad to hear you're healing up. As a fellow ankle breaker, I feel yer pain. Hope you're riding soon.

But be careful. The F.C.B. has had a high percentage of nasty crashes lately!

Woohoo! That's great news! I'll bet you couldn't ask for a better New Year's gift.

On 1/2 I'll just be getting back from vacation, so I'll be pudgy and slow. I'll meet you at the back of the pack

Thanks Tim, I appreciate the well wishes. The broke-ass-ankle club was not one I wanted to be member of but it is nice to know there are others out there who understand my pain.
