Physical Therapy Session

Let talk about physical therapy session. I am okay. As of May 31, 2005, I am just not yet discharged because they have a policy where they can't discharge the patients until months later. That is when they will know the patient is completely okay. I am okay.

All thanks to the car for driving on it. What I didn't know right away was that they had to lift the car off my ankle as the tire of the car was on it. I am not surprise the bone didn't break even though I was thin at the time. I have never and I never ever will have a broken bone.
I have one question though: What did it feel like to have a car standing on my ankle? Did it hurt when the car was on my ankle? How am I even suppose to know the answer to this? I wish God could give me the answer to this. I want to know what it felt like. I pray to know but God dare not to tell me.

I just have pain in the ankle sometime. I was in physical therapist session from the first week of February 2004 to somewhere in the month of April 2004.

The last week of January 2004, I could not go to anywhere. In February, they would not let me work on the ankle. They make sit for while with a heating pad on my leg a few times a week. When my mother came from her job, she had to take me twice a week.

After the first week, the best part was spending twice a week with my leg in the heating water doing exercised. All I had to do is to sit on chair and put my open wound leg in the hot water. I used to be so jealous of others when I came because these patients were allowed to do more exercising. The physical therapist made me take it slow and one step at time. After february, they gave me more exercising to do, which include standing only on it. In the end, they were making me push weight with my legs.

Sometime it seems my ankle had gotten completely heal as there were no pain. But then the pain had come back. Perhaps, I need to spend more time walking and running. Then maybe my ankle pain would never come back… That is just a thought.

The scar had fade away on my lower leg. The ankle that was once skinless, there is a small scare but it will be gone by this December 2005. When it was skinless, it was white. No blood at all. That makes me wonder, did it bleed at the time of accident...

This past January 2005 I did have a bone scan appointment, which I failed to show up for. It feel fine right now as of May 31, 2005. It seems that the winder weather triggered my ankle.
