The fall

A couple of weeks ago I fell getting out of an elevator at work. Left foot drop caught on the transition. No damage except to my pride and a bruised kneecap. This was only the second time I have fallen walking since my event, the first time was walking on hard-packed snow at a cross-country ski lodge. This time it precipitated comments from both my wife(who is a PT) and daughter that my walking has deteriorated since giving up the AFO and I should start wearing it again. So I agreed that I would wear it at work and at home would not use it. Oh well, setbacks are to be expected. I had walked without the AFO since my canoe trip in 2009.
