My first victory!

  • Popular Post

Hi everyone. I'm into my 3rd week post op and down 33 since I started this joy ride back in May. I had my first little victory moment yesterday! I discovered I no longer have to sit sidways on the bed or sofa to put on my socks. I can simply just lift my leg and put my foot on my knee!! Yay me! LOL
