Troy's Update

Troy's leg seems to be healing pretty well.  The orthopedic doctor said he can start putting weight on his leg now.  Before the doctor told him he could put weight on his leg, he wanted nothing more than to be able to do that.  However, now that he has the go ahead, he is rather scared.  I guess he thinks he's going to break something else.  The doctor reassured him that he can't do anything to his leg.  Nothing (short of being hit by a car - her words, not mine) will damage his leg.  So now it's just a mental game!  He started bearing weight utilizing both crutches (before he was on both crutches but always had his leg up).  When that went well, he went to one crutch.  He's slow as I don't know what right now, but at least he's building up his let strength again!  I guess it's good that he's slow.....now I can keep up with him!  Lol!


Here are a few updated pictures of his leg:  (staples are gone, and wounds are healing!)
