Well it has been a little over a week since surgery, and I am off crutches, have full range back, and am on the road to recovery. My therapist is having me bike about 2 miles a day, as well as doing exercises 2 times a day. My key numbers for therapy right now is 2, and 10. Two times a day, two miles a day, two times a week (therapy with Mr. Funk), 10 reps, two sets of ten reps etc...
Mom, Dad and I had to make the hard decision about Wisconsin yesterday. After much thought, discussion, and some tears, it was decided that it would be best for Mom and I to stay home. Dad said it the clearest by saying, "We know that we have a round peg and a round hole, but we are still trying our best to fit a square peg in the round hole." Meaning, we all knew that it would be best if Mom and I stay, but coming to terms with that was too painful and we wanted to do anything we could to be able to go. I am going to miss seeing Papa Jim, Grandma Bernice, Uncle Steve, Aunty Ann, Uncle Don, Aunt Sue, Julie, Laura, Ann, Tim, Brynn, Mackenna, and everyone else up there. My heart hurts to think about all the people I won't be able to see, and what we as a family won't be able to do. My heart hurts as I write this, but my prayer is that I will be able to bring my my pain to Christ, and that I would receive healing that only comes from Him and a "peace beyond my understanding".

I'm glad your doing better! i was going to ask about it today but you left before I got a chance. o well. 2 miles is pretty far. me and one of my friends hiked down to a river last sat. its about 1 mile strait down and the same strait up. (we decided the paths where for sissys. lol) so we went strait down the VERTICAL mountain.
which wasnt to hard it was the the coming UP the vertical mountain that was hard. wow. it kinda gave you that feelin like if you slip you basicly are going to fall all the way back down to the river. loL! and you would! it was fun though and i lived to tell the tale. we had ice cream when we got back! yay!
I'm sorry you cant go. I find it hard to bring pain to Christ. I guess i am too logical or somthing. when somthing i dont like is happening i try just about everythin in my power to change it before even thinking about Christ.
I guess that just makes me Human.
Its something i need to work on.
I can only pray that if god sends away som1 I desperatly love then He will grace me with "peace beyond my understanding". Seeya
I'm so sorry... I hope that you get lots of recovery done.
Much love to you, dearest.
WELL YOU CAN COME OVER HERE KARA,DOLL! AND I'M SO GLAD YOU FEEL BETTER!
