Sixty days ago I got this C-Leg and just now am I able to  use it without a crutch or a cane. I am only good for a few minutes before my bad habits kick back in and I start stumbling around, but they are a wonderful few minutes, and today is two or three minutes more than yesterday. All considered I am a pretty fortunate guy and a happy camper. I go through ups and downs like nearly everone does, but for the most part, I realize that this leg is working and one day I will be getting around just fine and perhaps have a life again. Not that PT and exercise all the time are bad, but a hike in the hills or a fishing trip actually seem very close to being part of my dailey reality again. I feel pretty darn good right now. Wish I could spread it around a bit.
