Welcome back ... um, you've changed just a little

Congrats on the progress, Yumi. Physical therapy was invented in the dark ages and known as torture back in the day. Now it makes you all bendy and betterer.

Absolutely. PT does some amazing things nowadays.

Keep your chin up, Yum.

5 weeks later, I started walking on my own today. Knee is stiff stiff but i do exercises that PT showed me and trying to walk from heel to toe. First time standing up and taking shower this morning too. Still keeping the shower chair inside to get in and out. I can touch my face with my left hand too. wrist is no way near normal yet. I only have .5 lb grip power.

I can pull the clutch lever in now. It was a stock display bike, but weeks ago, I could not do it with my bike. So I am happy about this.
