On The Road Again
Look who’s driving!

That’s right, kids! I’m back in the driver seat!
I met with the surgeon yesterday; he was very pleased with my progress and gave me the OK to start driving again. I am thrilled to have my independence back, but most importantly, to be on the road to a full recovery. As a bonus,Bill now can enjoy a well-deserved break from being my chauffeur!
It’s a great relief to see how improved I am since just last week, but I need to remember, I am still rehabilitating. Another follow-up with the surgeon is scheduled for six weeks from now and I will continue with physical therapy until then.
This is a huge step for me! Thank you, my WordPress family, for your encouragement and very good wishes all these months.
Love from Nancy
