One crutch

Julie ditched one of her crutches this week. After a good report from the doctor and the okay from her therapist Julie graduated to walking with one crutch. She may lose the other crutch next week if she can walk without a limp.

Julie's bone doctor was pleased with her progress. Her pelvis is healing just as quickly as it can. In fact, her body has concentrated so much on growing bones that it has neglected her big toe nails. She hasn't trimmed them since January.

Julie and Betsy attend therapy together three mornings a week. Aaron also began therapy to restore strength and movement to his shoulders and neck.

  1. Thanks for the update....and congratulations Julie on your promotion.

    I think that's pretty cool how God made you body so it knows not to worry about toe nails when it has more important work to do. Is that something the doctors have seen in the past?
