As the spouse of someone who also sustained a recent ankle injury, I know firsthand that "pedestrian-friendliness" becomes a very high bar to clear if you have to limp around!LHhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02127870226377459490noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5015340.post-42320632913403795402010-09-21T11:51:34.304-04:002010-09-21T11:51:34.304-04:00I can't help but feel admiration when I read t...I can't help but feel admiration when I read these. I guess I haven't mentioned this, but I very seriously damaged my ankle on August 3 ("trimalleolar ankle fracture", requiring surgery and then a follow-up surgery two weeks later), and I am incredibly blessed to be able to work every single day at home with no discernable negative impact on my performance.<br /><br />That said, I have personal (i.e. clinical) appointments at the following frequencies:<br /><br />- 1 every other week<br />- 1 every month<br />- 2 every six months, and both came around in September; I postponed one to the second half of October<br /><br />plus the regular podiatrist follow-ups, which look like they will be just once every two weeks for a while.<br /><br />I have not been very successful at doing most of these without someone giving me a ride in a car, even though I've made plans to use public transit on several occasions. And I can't even plead "I'm a suburban schlub; transit is not convenient to where I live", because it's actually quite convenient. So, bully for you!Joel GLhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06244692753296680669noreply@blogger.com
