Bones

Had my last visit to the orthopedist in Roanoke (a 140-mile round trip, thankyouverymuch) yesterday, and they gave me this picture - look ma, its me!

Loooookin' good!

The metal will stay in place; it ain't goin' no-where with all those screws - at least 24 - to remove. And I have the option to go to physical therapy if I need it - I still have about 10% loss of range of motion and strength, but I think that will just have to come back gradually. Besides, I don't think the little girls are going to put up with too many more of mama's doctor visits :)
