I thing the orthopedic doctor said it actually takes a year to heal completely .

But I hope you're on the slopes this winter, sweetie.

Yeah the shower was GREAT - plus the nice long hot bath!

I'll definately be on the slopes this winter - after all, I was able to ski with both the tendon & ligament ripped. So, surely I'll be able to ski this winter!

After my physical therapy, the therapist hooks up some kind of ECM(?)... electro something or other. It really reduces the swelling - ALOT. So, if your brother can get a few sessions with that thing... it's great!

And I think a year is unacceptable.
