31st March 2016 – Rehab Day 4 – Determined to be Released

Getting fed up of being stuck in hospital, as great as the Surgeon and Nurses are.

So aim for today was to stand without fainting and walk with my crutches.  I also wanted to met up with my Team Evolution team mates and also have some proper food !

Thomas my Physio was impressed that I didn’t faint and also that I could move a little, not easy but could move.  We practiced a few exercises to build up my leg strength and he would let me leave.  I got him to sign my cast.  Next I was seen by the Surgeon and he discharged me and also signed my cast.

So after struggling to a. get in the VW Polo my Dad had hired, and b. not being able to find the hotel we were staying in overnight, we drove up to see everyone at Team Evolution.  There they all signed my cast and also had bought me a massive Marmot that I named Maurice after the Bourg Saint Maurice Hospital.
