Yes, he told me to begin moving it as I can. I am not going to remove the boot while sleeping probably for a little while - just the splint which pushes on major sore points. I am still sleeping with my foot elevated above my heart.

I long for the day that I can get up and dust!!! Isn't that bad?!!! LOL

My sweet husband is 80 years old and my primary care giver, but I don't want to ask him to do those things - he has enough steppin' and fetchin'!

I never could get stable on the crutches so I have walker with rollers on it and a knee walker for longer distance in the house. Still in a wheel chair away from home. I hope I will be able to be mobile by the end of three months - even with the boot on.

Thank you for responding.
