Getting the boot

After spending the last several weeks trying to convince myself that the pain in my foot is

“No big deal”

I realized that six weeks of pain and 3 weeks of not being able to run is a big deal and it was time to do something about it. So I headed to the Dr. to get it checked out. At the first appointment, we ran through all of the symptoms and everything pointed to a stress fracture, even though the x-rays didn’t show anything.

No more crutches!

Thursday Sept 28th was exactly 8 weeks from the day of the crash and Luke got some of his most encouraging news to date.

It is time to ditch the crutches!

He can walk without his fine metal friends.

The boot isn’t gone yet, he still has that for one more week. But, he is one step closer to being fully recovered!

The human body and its ability to heal injuries is awe inspiring.

In eight weeks to go from a serious crash

with a fully displaced fracture

through surgery

onto crutches and then to be back walking is just amazing.

God is good!
