Day 12:  Wednesday, 29th May, 2012

Had another good night.  Woke feeling refreshed.  I had an early prosthetics appointment this morning and am happy to say that the diagnostic socket fitted perfectly and all is going well.  I can't wait to get my new leg and be back on my feet (and my exercise bike) again.  I am feeling increasingly frustrated at being confined to a wheelchair for so long.  Looking forward to having a life again now.

Lunch today was the leftover Bean Casserole from yesterday served with a green salad with celery and apple chopped into it.  Very refreshing.

Evening meal was a bit of takeaway Chinese Chow Mien, I am afraid.  Himself and friend came home from their TT excursion with it.  They wanted a very quick meal before heading off to watch the practice runs.  I only had a small portion of a few bits of chicken, some vegetables and a handful of noodles.  I did enjoy it but felt guilty about the noodles.  Later in the evening I had a small 50g bowl of Swedish Dairy Free Ice Cream.  It is really very nice, even if it is rather rich and sweet for my tastes.  Went to bed with a swollen ankle and fingers.  Serves me right, I suppose.
