I'm officially done...for now

So, I met with the surgeon on Thursday after 3 more weeks of PT. Again, he said how I have great motion, but still need quite a bit of work on my strength. I have been told that it's okay for me to stop PT (good, considering I'm going to be gone for 2 months this summer) if I promise to "work like crazy" on muscle strength and "don't do anything stupid". I had my final eval with the physical therapist on Friday, and he agreed. He commented on how far I've come in just the past few weeks. So, I am officially done with PT...for now. I meet with the surgeon on August 10 when I get back, after "being on my own" for a couple months, and he'll decide if I need a little more PT. YAY!!!! Where am I going, you may ask? I will be visiting my fabulous sister and her family in their brand new home in Corona, CA for a couple weeks, part of the time babysitting my nieces while Jocelyn and Jeremy have a fun (and much needed) vacation. From there, I head to Buena Vista (pronounced Bew-na vista...if you get it wrong, you WILL be corrected), VA for EFY again. I'm going to be the advil pusher...I mean health counselor for 5 weeks, then a week off, then I will be a health counselor for a week in San Antonio, TX...San Antonio for the first week of August...Air conditioning anyone? Anyways, that's the summary of what's been going on with me.
