I f we disregard all of the happy success stories that we heard before the surgery and focus on the other stories, it would still seem that recovery is in our future. Just not as fast or as pain free as we had hoped.
I do go to physical therapy three times a week and that is very helpful.
The PT works me pretty hard and it’s good to see that I can do it. Usually, I feel better after. He is encouraging and knowledgeable, so it gives me a chance to ask questions 3 times a week.
Everyone who sees me thinks I’m doing great. Including medical personnel. So…..I think maybe we are doing well and that we are on schedule for recovery. We just weren’t educated about what that would really look like.
