Today I lifted my leg off the ground without help. While that seems like such a very tiny thing in the grand scheme of things, I couldn’t do that two days ago, no matter how hard I tried at my PT’ s office. She had to assist… every…. single…. time. So today, I’m going to take the time to celebrate the small things. I’m now walking with minimal assist from the crutches (my knee wants to buckle a lot of the time), my dog has stopped following me around the house-especially near the stairs, and I showered without a monitor! WOOOOOT! Small victories. And while I’m terrified to try steps without the use of crutches, I’ll get there, one baby step at a time. So tell me? What have been your small victories today, or this week?
