And it’s a really weird feeling because in my mind it’s so simple, I just take a step forward. But when my mind says to do that, my body just doesn’t know how. I can’t really figure out how to adjust my weight over enough on to my left side to then lift my right foot up. I hadn’t’t been able to put any weight on my left side for the first 3 weeks after my two surgeries. The pelvic bone was broken in four places and I have 3 screws holding it in place, so I’m still in this window of bone healing, but as I’ve gradually started to be able to bear some weight on to my left side with the assistance of crutches, I’m able to move around a bit more. Today marked a big step, though, because my physical therapist had me try out the Alter G treadmill for the first time to simulate walking. These are my first steps! Right now, learning how to walk again is my big step forward… and I’m not even really there yet… but when I think about it, I am thankful for this progress as I compare each past week to the present. At first, I couldn’t even feel my leg, let alone move at all. I couldn’t go to the bathroom independent of a catheter. I couldn’t sit up in a chair, or have enough energy to make it down the stairs. Gradually, week by week, I’ve been picking up more physical therapy exercises, fine tuning my nutrition, my psychological approach, and my holistic awareness to who I am and what I want to define as my next chapter. It’s kind of like stripping down everything and hitting the reset. So I’m rebuilding and working; physically and mentally. I hope that my foundation will be stronger!」6月10日 1時23分
