Yesterdays announcement inadvertently introduced me to my new favorite GIF.

 

Progress
Sitting here almost in tears cause I walked down the steps
I have 3 different leg / knee braces here and with the help of my son and his metals teacher we have managed to turn them into what I need. I just walked up my steps down the hall and back down the steps with no crutches for the first time in 5 years. The part that surprised me was I was able to come down the steps leading with my bad leg (used to be my dominant leg). Some aching in my back but then I've been using crutches and a wheelchair for years so gonna take it slow and build up some muscles again. Hopefully I can eventually ditch the wheelchair and use the crutches less at least.

FU - to the surgeon who wanted to fuse my knee and defiantly to the one that suggested I amputate my leg. Right now just feeling immensely grateful I didn't go through with either of those.

But without badges, life is hollow and meaningless. It's fairly hollow and meaningless with badges, too, but for those first glorious moments after f5ing to find a new badge... in those moments, you are truly ALIVE.
