I Got to go home.  Did rehab on the stairs at Hospital and was let go at around 3pm.  We had a little spill or incident getting me out of the car at home.  But I'm ok, (the ribs screamed at me and I'll leave in at that.  I'm sore and tired but doing ok.  Can't go back to work for at least two weeks.  Have to see the surgeon tomorrow or Tuesday about treatment on the leg and what the plan in.

Excited to be home with family.  Now to work to get better.

Thanks all.  I'm improving each day now that it's day 8.  The PT guys are amazed.  I've actually started doing the rehab exercise today by bending the knee.  Definitely not easy and I will have pain.  I just need to keep the picture in my head that I should be dead.  I'm very humbled and thank you for comments from the bottom of my heart.
 
My white blood count is still low and their not sure why so I can't go anywhere and have to stay in the house.  I can only have immediate family visitors because of being at high risk for infection.  I got out of the Hospital Monday only because I promised Doctor I wouldn't leave the house  until the white blood count is up.  Right now it's at 2400 and its suppose to be at least 3000.

The knee bends is on my own with no PT helping from home.   The doctor told me today to start doing them.  The first 4 were toughbut I know its a slow process daily.

I won't be able to attend the marathon because of the white blood count or have visitors either until it is up.  I guess I'll sleep-in Saturday.

Able to bend my knee 90 degrees.  Started more of the therapy.  Kept it bent for quite sometime (Why do I feel I'm typing with fragment sentences).  You feel like your ripping your skin out because it's so tight.  Very heavy like a brick to lift.  Not the easiest but I did my best.  That's I think the therapy is so hard for some because your scared you might do something wrong when it feels so weird.

Had my cousin watch me today.  I did the same exercises and stuff like yesterday.  Been playing Madden 11 that my work bought for me.  

Watching what I eat and on a enriched high protein diet good for the broken bones.

Couldn't run the marathon today of course and couldn't even go watch because my white blood cell count.   

 I instead did painful exercise on the femur and using the crutches a lot.  Following what I'm told I can do.

Good protein today

 Breakfast:

One egg and some egg whites as well

Muscle Milk

 Lunch:

Salmon Alaska grilled fish (no bread)

Mushrooms 

Apple

 Dinner:

one package of Veggie riblets from http://www.morningstarfarms.com

Mushroom, onions, little bit of crab meat mixed with lettuce.

Corn on the cob

Coffee, Powerzero, and diet soda all day.

 Not a lot of calories but my appetite is not exactly the greatest right now.
