A Successful Week

I hit new highs today at PT. Right leg made 110 degrees and the left made 100. I wasn't expecting to make much progress this week, so it was a very welcome surprise. I am still unable to get that stubborn left knee to make a full revolution on the bike. Sooooo close and yet so far. With 100 degrees flexion though it shouldn't be long. Nate performed a different stretches (read "torture") in addition to the 2 he's already doing. For this one I'm laying on my stomach and he bends my legs up to the yip point. Yeah, that's something less that a yell but more than a moan. It's just a skosh beyond heavy breathing!

After a bit or running around, I'm propped up, icing my knees, and watching the Tour. I guess that's the convalescent's version of watching soaps and eating bonbons!

Best wishes to Kera in the mini Mussel triathlon in Geneva NY tomorow.

Keep up the great work, Donna! You will be jogging from winery to winery in October! Who needs a stinking bus?

I'll settle for being able to climb in and out of the darn bus! LOL!
