I feel better than I have in days.
Dr. Simonian looked at my knee and guaranteed me of a successful recovery. He prescribed six more weeks of physical therapy and two Iboprufen a day to help the remaining swelling to vanish.
I still have the same exercises to do until Friday but starting then, I will start a more advanced training with stationary bike, more leg presses and other strength exercises.
My next check-up is early May. By then, Dr. Simonian promises greater progress.
So tonight, as I dream of a better spring, I focus on flexions and extensions punctuated with icing.
I see the shores of hope tonight and although I'm not yet on top of a summit, I have reached the camp ground. I will unpack my bag and get ready for the bright morning that will signal my full recovery.
