I had my accident that resulted in my tpf type 6 on May 13.

I have been NWB since then and WILL be until at least the top on September when I see my ortho surgeon again.

With any tpf, the bones need to be completely healed because that area of the leg is one of the most important weigh bearing points in the body. If the tpf is not completely ready for the body’s weight, well…you can imagine.
