Just wanted to update my stats so far. I've been keeping real busy doing things I haven't done in a great many years; running for short distances, run/stepping through tires, much longer walks. For over a month now my husband doesn't have to find a close parking spot to a store or even drop me off at the door... I now just walk (fast paced) from about 1/2 way out in the parking lot. Although I probably looked silly or even stupid to some people the other day, I ran (pushing a shopping cart with 2 lg bags of dog food, lg bag of cat food plus other items) from the store to the van, run the cart back to the store then ran back to the van. Something I would have never been able to do previous to my surgery.
