An upbeat approach to one-footed living, this book delivers practical ideas for maximizing the temporary challenges asssociated with a casted leg and crutch use. The author, a single mom of three, found humor to be critical in making her post-op recovery time a fulfilling and, surprisingly, fun experience. Gym workouts, grocery shopping and even happy hours remained on the schedule -she deemed her cast to be "better than a puppy" in facilitating human connection.
