Week 4

34 days post op visit, it doesn't seem like it has been a month since I had surgery. We did the same routine check up, he looked at the fixator and said it all looked good and that we're at my final length!  Now to wait for the bone heal itself. The growth was roughly 27 millimeters or almost 3 centimeters. 

I have been using a shower chair to take showers and I've been putting a plastic bag over my foot so it does not get the scab wet that is healing in between the bars that's been slowly pulled apart when I turn it. I have also been using a chair that rolls to get all around the house which not having carpet makes that convenient. I use crutches when I go out and have not been instructed to put any kind of weight on it yet.  Here is my final length.
