I was starting to lose hope that I’d ever get to this point.

Months of pain, struggling on poorly fitting prosthetics, and stints in the wheelchair.

But six months after those first shaky steps on the inflatable leg, I’m back pacing around like nothing ever happened.

If you’re in a tough spot and can’t see the light at the end of the tunnel - I was there just over a month ago.

I was convinced I’d need more surgery just to walk properly again and was in a tough spot.

But things have a way of working out, even when you can’t see how in the moment.

TRUST THE PROCESS

I guess I am just wired this way

AD| No Holding Back āš”ļø The gym has been my lifeline these past few months, but now it’s time to get moving outside again.

Soaking up that vitamin D!

I’m kitted out in as always, my sexy white Zeroed In Shorts luckily didn’t get too mucky on the floor.

Hope you’ve all enjoyed the sun this week ā˜€ļøā˜€ļø

I have never enjoyed making a video as much as this one with my Nonna šŸ‡®šŸ‡¹šŸ

We have cooked together many times, but never filmed it.

She gave me permission to share the family lasagne recipe.

Ingredients for a couple of trays… if you want to make one tray use half the below:

Garlic (lots)
Onion (x2)
Mince 2kg (Beef & Pork mix)
Mushrooms (optional)
Lasagne sheets (couple of boxes)
Passata (3kg)
Puree (400g)
Egg (x8 hard boiled & mashed)
Mozzarella (x6 balls)
Parmesan (200g)
Sugar (x4 teaspoons)
Salt / pepper / parsley

To make the sauce:
Chop your garlic & onion, fry it off, add the mince & mushrooms. When the mince is brown, add the puree for 2 mins, then add your passata, a little water & herbs… leave for as long as you can to simmer (ideally 2 hours but 1 will do), stir occasionally.

To build the lasagne:
Add a layer of just sauce to a tray, then add in order: pasta sheets, crumbled boiled egg, sliced mozzarella, Parmesan, sauce again. Between layers add some raw egg to bind. Repeat until you have 2-3 layers then add the final layer of just Parmesan & sauce. Cover with foil and cook at 180°C for approx 45 mins. Let stand for a few mins.

ENJOY xx

I’ve got an ankle that moves again šŸ‘€

All this prosthetic stuff is totally new to me, I genuinely thought you just put one on and off you pop for a run…

Some feet are amazing at walking uphill, some downhill, some for tennis, you name it!

I am incredibly grateful for my clinic Orthopaedic , without you guys I would still be in a wheelchair.

For my amputee friends, the carbon fibre foot I’ve been using for a few weeks is the ā€˜Terra’ and the hydraulic foot is the ā€˜Taleo Adapt’. Don’t ask me which I prefer they are both amazing at different things.

Phantom limb pain…

I know most of you will never experience this but it is honestly mad

If you want to hear the weird techniques I use to deal with it let me know below and I’ll get another video made

Have a great weekend xx

The joys of being an amputee…

So much goes into keeping us walking about, honestly I had no idea it was such hard work.

We’ve all seen the athletes sprinting about at the Paralympics but behind the scenes it is constant stump changes and socket issues.

I’ve been told it all tends to settle down after a couple of years, so let’s hope that is the case šŸ¤žšŸ¤ž

Thanks for looking after me Orthopaedic xx
