Busy day for you but it all sounds positive. It's always good to get a positive dr report. You gained weight, Mojo said she gained weight and I gained 3 lbs myself. You are right though that it is probably the inactivity. I guess that loss of appetite those first few days didn't make much difference. It's good you were able to see your father in law and brighten his day, too.

Fast update on me today....PT huge workout I hope I'm not sore tomorrow she had me do something that may not be good for me but
IF I want I can lose the cane she had me walk in and outside on grass without said I'm good... I'm going to use it off and on my security cane
We will be working mostly on balance which is good I think she detected something about me I did not disclose
Also lol she said I have a tendency to plop down on things lol we work on that too... Hubby's said the same thing I get so far down then...plunk
She said when I hit the table she was afraid I'd go off......but um I'm a pro at plopping.....
She also tested my abductors and said Monday no way will they find a muscle tear she said first time I tested I could hardly do it NOW it's very strong
Hugs all and night

Wow, that is great you got so much sleep. You hopefully feel much better now although if it was me, I'd probably have had trouble falling asleep last night.
Your PT sounds very observant and like she is helping you with all the things that deal with your day to day life which is great. I think most therapists are trying to be helpful and very few as as nasty as the ones @Mojo333 had at her first therapy session. I don't always get the same one each time I go but they all ask what I find bothersome and they try to help with that along with all the regular stuff they have me do.

Hope you slept - I did! Or good enough. I'm not going to PT which has one of my pals up in arms. She's an old physio and OT but retired from that many years ago. I told her to go on the forum before lecturing me but she couldn't find what I was talking about so...
I was supposed to have my 2nd PT last Tuesday but cancelled as I'm not doing the exercises.
Guess I've drunk the BoneSmart kool-aid!

You've had some very busy days this week so maybe you need a day to just take it easy. I'm so glad you are getting some sleep. That helps a lot, that's for sure.
We went to nursery yesterday to get a few veg plants so will work on planting our veg garden today. We also have some seeds but certain things like tomatoes and peppers, we usually get the plants. The sun is out and it is beautiful with no rain!!

I'm so sorry about your FIL. It is a difficult situation.
But on the positive side, dr said you are good and that is fantastic. Plus you can go to the beach and in the lake! I bet that water is still rather chilly but maybe you don't mind. I'm glad you had time to post a quick note as we were all thinking about you.
