Moscow Journey- December 2, 2014

     I saw the orthopedist today, and the pelvic fracture is"healing nicely".  He saw no signs of another fracture, so I guess all my pain, whining, and complaints are in vain.  I told him about having difficulty straightening my left leg and problems in walking. The doc explained that using the wheelchair and sitting too much causes the problems I'm having with my left leg, BUT he cautioned about being too enthusiastic about walking!  Soooooo, I need to walk to keep my leg limber, but I must be careful not to overdo it!  I need to use my level of discomfort to determine how much is too much.  I am grateful to know I have no new fractures.
