Broken leg how to recover can you help?

Post by gardenwoman »

I broke 2 bones in my leg and some in ankle 7th December last year. It has been a difficult journey with many complications, 3 operations and pins, plates and screws, and only just out of plaster and ready to weight bear, so I need now to learn to walk again. Not able to use crutches because of tremor, or frame because of previous broken elbow. I wondered if anyone else has any ideas of how to get going again when the one good leg is so shaky and the bad one no use at all yet? Have been using a wheelchair now for almost 3 months and beginning to wonder if I will ever get on my feet properly again. Best wishes to you all.
