Hey, Jim, howzitgoing? Nope, I must have missed the lady with the removable trike at IHS. Wish I'd seen that, would have liked to check it out.
Tomorrow (Tuesday) I'm going in to get fitted for some sort of new hi-tech brace that only covers the knee area. Supposed to give me back lateral stability in the knee, and man, I hope so! PT has been progressing, but it seems that at a bit over 100 pounds sustained weight on the leg we've hit a wall. At that point, the knee starts to wobble around too much to bear more weight. Doctor thinks that with this brace, I might be able to graduate to a cane instead of these phreakin' crutches fairly soon. Wish me luck!
Hmmmm, remembering Margo at IHS, no wonder I didn't notice any other of the ladies! (Jim will understand this, otherwise "ya had to be there."
Semper Fi, brother!
