8 months post-paoIt's been a few weeks since I've last updated you all, but that's because I have been so busy just living life! Following hardware removal, I took 2 weeks to slowly resume activity and have been feeling great ever since. I have successfully completed my 4 month orthopedic clinical rotation and am now enjoying a full week off before beginning my final clinical rotation in acute care. So how am I spending my free time you might ask?
I am living my life on the mountain! I have made FULL RETURN to skiing without any problem! And it's so interesting to me because, although I am significantly weaker than I have been in years, I really feel like I am skiing better than I ever have. It's only in looking back now that I can see just how hard my muscles had to be working to stabilize my hip. I remember the day that I found out I would need PAO and how terrified I was that this very thing would be taken away from me forever. Words cannot even describe the joy that these past few days has brought to me knowing that for the first time in 3 years, I am able to do whatever I want without this silly hip holding me back :)
