It is really amazing to see where I was in February to where I am today. To take other sections of the body, like my back and put into my leg and all has healed except for the full movement in which I am working on in therapy and am up to a 90 degree bend so far. I am extremely happy with my turn out. Thank Greg Hobson, McKenzie Alban and Dr Groundland for putting me back together.
