Remember this pic, from about 3 months ago!
I was lucky enough to only have that thing on for 4 weeks
BUT up until, one day ago I was still wearing one of these!
That's 3 months without the normal use of my foot!

Besides all the other things I enjoy doing, with 2 feet, The one thing I missed the most was going for a run. It's hard to beleive that 4 years ago I hated running, with a passion. Now I find myself staring our the window of my suburban at runners on my same route and feeling sad, I was especially sad this morning when I put on my Favorite pair of jeans {thank-you Satya} and discoverd thay are fitting a little tighter.
So in case you're wondering why I'm wearing this restricting aircast for so long. It's beacause my bone is not healing. Well my doctor suggested surgery, but Luckily a friend from church was inspired to tell me about a friend from our ward who is a Chiropractor. She has these cool lasers that she puts my leg under, for about 15 min every time I go in. And After doing a muscle test told me I shouldn't have to wear the cast Anymore!

Let me guess... Elizabeth? The laser worked wonders for me during my pregnancy with Logan and also when Spencer was released from the hospital.
