Today I had my follow-up appointment with the orthopedic surgeon. After an x-ray confirmed that the fracture was still there, although improving, it was determined that I’m doing just fine. My recovery is progressing well, maybe better than expected.

I still have some limp, but I just about don’t need the cane anymore. I have very little discomfort in my pelvis when I walk; however the road rash is still a bit troublesome. Today was the first day that the deepest abrasions were no longer oozing. I’ve got thick scabs on most of the wounds and they’re itching.

I’m allowed to sit on my bike on the trainer for small amounts of time next week. However, it’ll be about five more weeks before I can really ride.
