I Can Jump Again

After 2 weeks of agony and limping my ankle is definitely healing now I can do more walking and exercise. My boyfriend and I aim to do it twice a day. Yesterday while I was playing reggaeton music and cooking, I even found myself skipping and jumping to a song yesterday. And best part is it didn't hurt! I wonder if its the daily swims that helped me with this. Looking forward to getting back in shape. And doing more activities on foot.

That's a beautiful scene. Did you or your boyfriend take it? I'd love seeing that in person. I'm glad your ankle is doing better now. And yeah, swimming is an activity that a therapist will suggest you do to help an ankle heal.

I took that with very high zoom on my phone. Thus not too sharp. That's during one of our walks. I am glad it is healing. I actually thought I broke it badly cause it took too long to recover.

@flapiz Oh, nice! It looks good no matter how you choose to see it. Just be glad it's healing and you get to exercise it in the ocean.

Helps a lot. Makes me stretch it without feeling the pain.

Happy to hear that you are finally healing. But do yourself a favor when you do get fully healed, don’t go out and get hurt again!

@flapiz The local hospital should just set you up with your own personal (and permanent) room, due to you getting hurt so much! haha

@porwest True. Now when it hurts I just sush it. It's not as bad now it is just dull pain. I think the muscles may have shortened a bit from inactivity.

I have been missing here a lot lately due to all offline obligations and also now seasonal viral flu in the last few days. I am not sure what happened to your ankle. I hope that you recover really soon and be back in shape soon. That's a lovely picture. Thanks for sharing.
