I’ve been using both new legs for about a month now. It’s probably longer but I am bad with long term time(weeks and months). I am using a walker and boy is it slow going. If I could do the voice I would wear my bathrobe in public and do the pedophile from Family Guy.
A surprising feature of my new limbs is that they are 10 inches shorter than my old legs. Now I literally see eye to eye with my wife. I have to hop up to get on my king-size bed. Before I could just sit on it. I like to say if they were going to take 10 inches they could have taken it off my dick.
Using a walker takes both hands. If I don’t have the basket attached it’s like I don’t have any arms. The basket is 12″ x 6″ x 3″. My scooter basket was as big as a bike basket. I’m now in touch with my female side in that I prefer the depth rather than width,
I’m slowly raising the level of the walker so I won’t walk leaning forward. I was two notches up but I fell last week so I’m back to one. I’ll go back to two tomorrow. I read in Lifehacker that if you tell people your goals you are more likely to accomplish them. What few goals I have I need all the help I can get.
One of those few goals is spend 45 minutes on the working tasks on the PC like blogs, my wife’s website, and various programming languages like Java, C#, and perl.
