Mobile Phone Holder and Sun Glasses Wrap

I was on the internet the other day looking at all thing cycling and I came across Beer Babe.  Julia at Beer Babe makes a range of products including useful cycling goodies from recycled means.  I decided to order a mobile phone holder for my iPhone and a wrap case for my cycling sun glasses.

When both arrived I was really chuffed with the quality.  The holders are made from used inner tubes, with reinforced Velcro closures. The real deal!

If you are in the market for similar goodies then give Beer Babe a look.

12 Weeks Post Op

At long last I have changed from the BIG armpit crutches to a smaller single elbow crutch.  It feels like freedom.  I am now partial load bearing and the leg brace has been set to 90 degrees.  Feels like liberation, but kinda funny.  My confidence had definitely been affected.   I know that this will take time.  I find myself being cautious when I am walking.

I have been doing the exercises that the Physiotherapist gave me.  I can know bend my knee to 100 degrees.  Under direction from the Physiotherapist I am taking these exercises easy.  My knee swells up quite a bit.  I tend to put regular ice compression (every 2 hours) on it with the Aircast Knee Cryo/Cuff.  This seems to reduce the swelling, which is great as it relieves the pain.

I am due at  Physiotherapist this Friday.  I look forward to these appointments as its a good laugh. I am due back at my Consultant on 12 June 2014.  So, I will see then how I am progressing.
