*mosies into her blog*

Look, ma. No cane!

Okay. Enough of that. *Picks up cane again.* I feel way safer with the cane, even though I can walk straightline without it. Stairs? require more effort, sorting of left & right legs, concentration and a cane, lol.

But I got a new physical therapist today named Cathy who I really like! Hopefully I won't have to switch back to Linda. Cathy and I hit it off - that always helps. She is straight-forward, not forced-friendly and just seems more like my kind of people than Linda did.

Anyway, I can flex my knee past 90' and she thinks I will have no trouble getting to 120, which minimum I really want. I guess with artificial knees that can be the trade-off - you get the pain-free strength but less flexibility. Linda was already ready to settle for just past 90'.

So far I am happy I did it. Since I fell in front of Humpty Dumpty the left knee has had just about zero staying power.

OH yeah, we had gimp sex last night. What a hoot! We had to sort out what body parts went where, and I had to remind Tom twice that if you touch my knee I will kill you! but apart from that it was nice to home. :-)

Did you threaten to whack him with the cane?

Yay for Cathy. I'm glad you are getting better.

Did Cathy need to coach you through the sex part of your recovery?
