Pacing Myself

I'm going into this week planning to work Monday, Wednesday, Friday from the office and Tuesday and Thursday from home. As much as I enjoy being back, I'm tired right now having put in a full day.

My crutching stamina continues to improve. A week ago, I had to stop to rest six times between the train and my office. This morning I made the same trip only stopping twice!

Congrats on your recovery -sounds like it going well! I am 6 and 1/2 weeks out from RPAO and shhh - I am using only one crutch! I haven't gotten the official OK - but I have no pain and feel like it is time. I have been out "walking" everyday - using one crutch and pushing the baby stroller with the other hand!
Make sure you don't over-do it - and rest when you need to rest. I have realized pushing yourself just a little helps - and pushing yourself too hard just causes soreness and exhaustion!

Hi Beth -

Thank you for your note. You surely have your plate full with crutches AND a stroller!

Best of luck,
