3 - 'twelve-weeks post-op'


At 'twelve-weeks post-op', I was walking 2-3 miles a day, WITHOUT crutches.

-------------

One of my concerns was how I would deal with the notoriously poor quality, and dangerous, Chiang Mai sidewalks**. I mean without a crutch, and I tripped up, it could be bad, right?

Well, that's what I thinking, so I practiced parachute landings; i.e. 'land and roll'.

And it worked great, as long as I remembered, "the RIGHT HIP, Dummy!!"

'9 out 10', isn't necessarily a good thing.
