FIS forms and rehab schedules...all part of the road to recovery

I finally have a date set for my (hopefully) last surgery. Dr. Millett remarked in my meeting last week that the bone tunnels have filled in quicker than expected and that I am recovery ahead of schedule. I had hoped that my extensive experience in the post-surgery healing department might speed up the process, and he confirmed this by saying my diet and rest schedule probably had a lot to do with my recovery....well aren't I a model patient!

This next/last surgery, scheduled for June 13th, will give me an ACL. I have been without one the past 10 weeks and would very much like to have back in my life. Looking at my leg right now, the quad muscle has stayed relatively strong, I'm walking around and biking like a normal person, even the hairs on my legs have grown back from the first surgery leg shave. It's a little bit of a bummer that I'll be going under the knife so deep into shorts season, but I couldn't be happier to know the date of this procedure as it provides a much better view of my healing schedule going forward.

Hoping for a good surgery and a fast recovery!
