Well today is the day. Better reward yourself with something cool to do when the cast is off.  Take it easy, you will need physiotherapy. Your muscles will be stiff having been stuck in the same position for a couple of months.  Hats off to you buddy, you have been a Super Trooper, you made it through, the cast is off and now we can get back into the swing of things.

The Cast Clinic might be a place you will have to visit often over the course of your recovery.  Funny thing, we brought the other shoe, thinking Corbin could put it on when the cast came off.  It is not going to happen, your foot will be swollen and it won’t fit!  So don’t bother carrying it with you, it will take a few days for that shoe to fit again.

The sign at the entrance to the Hospital clearly states no Smoking. It seems many people just need to smoke regardless of where they are.  Fortunately they have masks at the entrance, you can use one as a filter as you walk past the cloud of smoke…

Exciting time today! Here we are, the last long walk through the hospital parking lot with this cast on…

Celebrate with a special breakfast out on your big day.  Pick your favourite local restaurant, lovin fluffy buttermilk pancakes.

With so many X-Rays and so many Doctor visits, we are here, for which will hopefully be the final visit.  Corbin is ready for the cast to come off.  And lo and behold the appointment is set for the cast to come off tomorrow…

Visit #9, how many X-rays could one person possibly need?  We are counting on this being the last visit.  Our Doctor needed an X-Ray almost every week to ensure Corbin’s leg was healing straight.  Count up your visits, save the waiting room tickets as a souvenir.  Time the waiting room, see how efficient your Hospital is?  It seems having X-rays done in the evening was the quickest…

If you want to live on the wild side and if your leg feels up to it?  Deep down you know the cast is ready to come off. So, get back into a few of your favourite sports.  See what you can manage while your cast is still on.  Just avoid putting your other leg into a cast.

If you can try to catch the ice cream truck as it makes it’s way through your neighborhood…

Seeing a movie on the big screen is always a treat especially when you add the pop and popcorn..

Take your art to a new level and perfect a cup of cocoa, steamed, shaken, not stirred with a touch of cinnamon and whip cream…

If you love music maybe spending some time scratching some vinyl, or what ever they call it now with digital music. Find the device that will enable you to do it with an iPod, hey worth a try…

See what old records you can dig up? Then, if you find something really good, scratch It, of course I am referring to DJ’ing…

Listening to your favorite tunes on a bigger stereo is always entertaining and a bit different than the ear buds you might be used to. If the neighbors are not home, maybe you can feel that bass thumping. Let your bones tell you it is loud instead of your ears…

Whether you think you can’t draw or are already an extremely talented artist, drawing, sketching or even doodling is a great way to pass the time. Stay creative and just enjoy yourself…
