Sometimes a Break is Good for a Break

I took a day off my walking yesterday, and I think it’s done the fracture in the rear of my pelvis a lot of good. It had been feeling a bit achy for the last few days. I’d tried changing the path I walk to reduce the hilliness in hopes of giving my pelvis a kind of working break, but it was still feeling a bit stiff and sore, so I held off on any walking yesterday, and when I got up this morning I was feeling much better, and was able to walk double the distance I’d been walking without any pain in my pelvis. Yippee for that!

Tomorrow I see my bone specialist and he’ll tell me how my bones are doing. I think things are going to look good, but we’ll see. I definitely feel stronger. I had a moment in the yard where I had to stand on one leg to step over something, and I used my right leg without thinking and it was fine. It’s strange to suddenly feel so confident that it can hold me up. It’s definitely a physical and not a mental thing though. Just like the weakness was more a physical feeling than a mental one. My body seemed to know when the bone wouldn’t hold, and now it seems to now that it will.  We’ll see if my body is right or not tomorrow :)
