Mom continues to do good

Just talked to mom. She went to the doc and they x-rayed her and everything looks good. Mom looked at a vertebrate three or four or higher and was concerned.  Doc said that it doesn't affect anything which is true. He liked the sticks and was messing around with them. A man she didn't know approached mom and said you're a hiker  (then she went on about the surgery). The manager at food city approached her and said her son could really use those poles because he had surgery on his calf (mom told her to go to the hiking store to pick them up.) Mom is starting a trend. I explained that I have another set and to keep those. I think that she finally realizes that those poles are better than the walking stick that she had.

She mentioned that she uses the walker in the house still but that is okay until she is completely comfortable on the poles. I was giving her ideas on how to use the poles, laundry, and using the black cart etc..... She is listening.

Just wanted let you know that the doc doesn't want to see her for six months. Surgery was considered successful. He told her no more pt.

Take care
