Who needs therapy?

Physical therapy that is.
Status Post accident 8 weeks 2 days
Brandon's quick surgery last week to remove the hardware went very well and after a couple days of healing, he all ready shows improvement in mobility and pain level. He starts physical therapy today. On Monday the doc gave him permission to wean off the walking boot. He hasn't worn it since. (the word "wean" is not in his vocabulary)
He wears his Teva sandals now, nothing else fits due to the continued swelling.
He still has a nasty limp.
He was told not to hike with us this weekend in Moab. The doc told him he would become a rescue operation if tried to get out on a trail.
But hopefully by late spring, early summer, he will be ready to roll.

That's good cause Nicole and I are coming out to do a 14er in the summer. I really want to do one for some reason.

I'm glad Brandon is healing quickly.

What a crazy experience! I'm glad big B is up and about as much as possible. PS I heard you were here and didn't come over- we weren't even sick this time! :) You aren't getting off the hook next time...
