Life Out of a Cast: Day 6 - Learning to Walk... Again

One of the toughest things (for us) that resulted from your injury and cast, Rai, was that the development of your mobility skills was put on hold for nearly a month. In the long run, the loss of a month won't mean a thing but, right now, when your growth and development is measured by the day, that period of time seems like a lifetime.
Not only did you lose three weeks of walking and climbing, but now, with a weaker leg and unpracticed, it's almost like you're learning to walk all over again. You're a bit shaky and unsteady and not as confident as you were before the broken leg. Almost a week after the removal of the cast, however, we're seeing progress.

  1. You are a walker, that's for sure. And an adorable one at that.
