another day?

Had a visit with my treating GP on Friday, passed on the Surgeon's report as requested. My Surgeon said the slab cast was to come off after two weeks, ie the 15th of April. Problem is, both the Surgeon and my GP will be on holidays until the 20th! Great.
The GP said to call in on the 15th and another doctor would remove the cast and check the wounds, remove any stitches etc. While I was there my GP gave me a new Workers' Comp certificate to cover me until my next visit with him on the 20th of April. I see the surgeon the same day for a follow up, and I guess to find out what physio I need.
I'm just taking one day at a time, and although it's difficult at times, I know there are many others who have had, and are having a much more difficult recovery than I. My Wife and Son have been a real lifeline. I'd be lost without them! It's amazing how even mundane daily tasks like getting on and off the loo are soooo much more difficult with only one functioning leg!
