Congrats on the good progress report!!!
I love questionnaires. No matter how simple they make them I always get confused by over thinking them!Def

Actually my requirements were much less sinister- cheap and handy were pretty much my bottom lines! I had gone into a healthcare store to buy some surgical tubing for resistance training my foot as part of my physiotherapy, and the funny thing is, the actual healthcare supply part of the store is as far as you can get from the door, and I had gotten adventurous and left my crutches at home. The walk to the far end of the store was a lot more ambitious than I planned on, so I got the cane while I was there and used it to walk back to the cash and then out to the parking lot.
I've got to say that the best part of this is that I finally was able to clean off the dead skin, old scabs and other crud that had built up on my leg under the cast. Even though I had the opportunity to clean it up somewhat last week, it was still a very significant mess today. I cannot stress however, how nice it is to actually be able to scratch itches....Def
Great news. Is there anything else you can do other than not slip on ice, like higher more supportive boots? I was thinking about how better to support you ankles. Is there something you might wear while out that would be comfortable yet not restrict the natural movement. I would guess tho that you'd want to strengthen rather than "support" your ankles .
