Hi Everyone!
I hope you all had a fantastic Superbowl Sunday! It was such a fun day here, my mom and sister both ran the half marathon held here every year, and then we hosted a huge party at out house for the superbowl! I’m not much of a football follower, but it was fun seeing everyone get together and have a good time. Did you guys do anything fun this weekend?
I just had my therapy appointment, andI left with such a positive attitude! My therapist measured by flexibility, and since the castings, I have improved tremendously! I almost have my foot at a 90 degree angle, and my ankle improved by 15 degrees, when I flex it. I go back in two weeks for a check up, and get an update on wearing my brace, and doing my at home stretching. I am so happy, I didn’t realize that the casting did that much for me! I am walking more evenly, and able to exercise still, with a stronger pace and fluency. I can’t wait to keep moving forward and see more improvements on my own! Wish me luck.
I hope you all have a fabulous week, I am about to attack my load of homework since I’ve put it off this weekend, and get these next two Monday’s off with thanks to the past Presidents of our country. Wish me luck for this one too. Haha…I’ll be on again soon!

How often do you stretch?
A few times a week. I really should every day but I just make an effort to before and after I weight train about 3x a week. I wear my brace some nights as well. I can’t last the whole night though, my foot goes numb because of my nerves so it gets uncomfortable.
