I achieved my goal today!

[belldawg]

A couple of weeks ago, I posted about "training" for a trip to Disney World with my family this September. My goal was to walk 4 miles because the average guest walks that far in a day. Well, today I did it! I'm 62 years old and 8 months out from an LTR. My knee held up beautifully and the only problems I had were due to arthritis in my other knee and being terribly out of shape. I never thought I could do this, so I feel a wonderful sense of accomplishment. Now I know I can and the task won't be so daunting.

That is great. So happy you will be able to join in the family fun.

My goal was to climb the bleachers to watch grandson play football.

I don't have stairs to practice on but I know I will do it.

Bell, absolutely wonderful!!! It's amazing what determination and a good goal will do. You need to feel VERY proud to do that at your point in recovery. You'll have a wonderful time with Mickey and Minnie. Keep posting that kind of good news. It is so important for the ones who follow you in surgery.
