Over this weekend in glorious weather I found the energy to hike for two hours. It's now three months since my skiing accident and at last my physiotherapist has introduced a resistance band and progress is gradually being made. I'm only taking pain killers at night and have found more energy through the day. It's lovely weather here in the UK and the vitamin D is doing me good too! I've started a program in the gym and hopefully I will gradually regain my fitness. My expectation is that after a year of hard work, I should have near full mobility to go back to the slopes and lift some weights too. It was good to read your success story and very encouraging. Thank you Best wishes Denise Hi Kathy

Yes, I needed a lot of sleep, especially since I was often uncomfortable and didn't rest soundly during the night. Balancing sleep with the recommended physical therapy and my own exercise routines wasn't always easy, but it paid off. You're not being lazy: you're being wise! I will keep you in my prayers for a full recovery, so that you be back on the slopes and the greens, celebrating your body's victory. :) God bless you, Kathy Hi, Denise.

I fell on a steep ski slope and was lucky enough not to need surgery. The pain has only just started to recede and the last X-rays show that the healing is almost complete and I will soon be able to do more physio and gym work. It's great to read that your shoulder mobility is now very good and I aspire to get the same results. I'm not progressing as fast as I would like and the thought of a whole year before I can play golf and swim etc is sad. Am trying not to feel sorry for myself and will take pleasure in walking and enjoying the summer. I would like to ask you if during your recovery you were very tired (I think the pain has a lot to do with my tiredness.) Balancing the amount of excise to the amount of sleep required for the healing process is confusing as sometimes I think I'm just being lazy!! I'm an otherwise very healthy, sporty 59 years old. Very best wishes Denise Hi

I'm glad your fracture is healing well and that you feel confident enough to ride your bike outside. I'm not at that point yet. I went to my 3rd session of physical therapy today, which included both strength training and stretching. I have 9 more sessions over the next 3 weeks. Perhaps by then, I'll be able to ride my bike again! Thanks for writing, Diane, and best wishes to you with your physical therapy. Hi, Diane.
