My husband took me to The Nutcracker last night. Sixty pounds ago it would have been very difficult. We parked a block away, then climbed flights of stairs at the venue, then down those scary little nearly vertical stairs into balcony seats. But I had no problem, even though I wore (not very high) heels. And I consented to having a picture taken. (Wildly out of character.) This surgery has saved my life in so many ways. I can't wait to see what next Christmas brings. Here's hoping you all had a wonderful holiday, and here's to our bright days ahead.

Yay! Congratulations!

Awesome story! Thanks for sharing and keep up the great work!

great accomplishment!!!

not sure about others, but for me, climbing upstairs is harder than going downstairs

you too???

wonderful NSV

sure you enjoyed the Nutcracker more "mentally" too with that walking/climbing under your belt

keep up the good job

I know you will

Sounds like you had a great time. Keep up the good work!!!

These are the kinds of NSVs I love so much. Real life. Daily living abilities. Things that "normal" people take for granted.

But we do not.

Congratulations.
