3 weeks post surgical update
Went back to work this week and it was OK. Monday was rough and I was ready for the day to be over. As a school administrator I am able to sit, walk, stand when needed but it was still rough. It got a little easier as the week went on. Today I was able to get in a 2.1 mile walk in under 55 minutes. Moving right along.
My big worry now is not doing something stupid or a freak accident. Had a pep fest at school yesterday and a teacher hit the back of my leg as a joke. She wasn't aware I had back surgery. Fortunately she hit the bad side and I was supporting myself with good leg. Had she hit the strong side I would have hit the ground. Still can't support myself on left leg.
