August Doctor Update & More

I'm late in getting this out....sorry for the delay.

I had x-rays August 23rd and the surgeon said there's no change. Which means my bones are not healing. They're not worse, but they're not hardening either. He said to come back in two months for more x-rays to see if any bone growth has occurred.
The doctor did say to start resuming normal activity, and he approved my request to go hunting! So that's good news....however, I'm not sure if my surgeon truly understands what "normal activity" is for me, but he seems to think my legs are stabilizing.

I plan to go deer hunting September 29th, with the Whitetail Challenge Foundation! I'll be taking it easy, and only hunting one session instead of three like I have the past three years.

My next x-ray appointment is October 18th. Hopefully there will be progress by then.

In other news...still no updates on insurance issues which means I have no idea when I'll be able to get my wheelchair replaced or hand controls put in my van. (I'm currently using my old chair to get me by until we can replace the one that was in the accident.) Nor is there a guarantee that everything will be covered by insurance, when it ever does get settled.

My family and I covet your thoughts and prayers, that all this nonsense will be resolved sooner than later.

Thank you friends!
