Aug. 4, 2014: Monday: A Right Angle

PT at home with Karen Gage today. She got flexion up to 90°. Extension is still 8° off of horizontal, so that is slow going. I am not ready to try walking with one crutch; need to perfect the gait using two crutches.

And I can now start on the rowing machine. Today: 1000 m in 6:21.

Measured my height carefully. 5 feet, 6 and 13/16 inches, just over 5’ 6.75”. Since I have called myself 5’6” in recent years, that’s nice. Of course, I have not gained 3/4 of an inch. Yet by straightening my right leg the surgery will have made me a little taller.
