I’ve been gone for awhile…and return as Cyborg Teacher!
Wow, didn’t mean for the blog site to be down so long! I had a full hip replacement on July 8th- so I’m at 8 weeks recovery time this week! Very very good outcomes and am now a full-fledged member of the Cyborg Club! I have a full titanium top of the line Zimmer hip and am zimming along at an amazing rate! Just think, 9 weeks ago I could not lift my left foot more than 1/2 inch off the ground and today I’m climbing stairs and checking out the belly dancing lessons on cable!
There’s lots to write about this journey where I learn to walk again and I’ll get some stories uploaded very soon. For the most part I’m without any pain and feel pretty good. Getting into the swing of this fall semester has been a chore but I’m not so sure that its “hip” related… it has felt more like being caught in a maze with odd twists and turns- no cheese in sight!
Before going into too many personal, although amazingly interesting stories, there are several “disability” related news items to bring to your attention. Look for more updates on Cyborg Teaching and Reflections in the near future. For now take a look under the “News” category
