Hi. You've received some really good advice. Shop online. And, yes, Target is good. Get someone to take you there and drive around in the cart.

I broke my fibula on 10/29 when my shoe fell off while going down to my basement. I have an old basement with cement floor. I missed several steps and my foot landed down on the cement. Thank God I didn't do worse damage. Didn't need surgery.

I return to the OS next Monday. That will be exactly five weeks. I'm hoping the cast comes off. I have no idea what to expect. I'll keep you posted.

My best piece of advice is this....use a rolling desk chair (especially the simple secretarial chairs without arms) to roll around the house - especially in the kitchen. I found that suggestion in the tips section of this website. Also, you can make a cup of coffee, put it in a travel mug with a cover, and roll to your comfy chair or couch on your rolling chair.

Hope this helps!
