  • I broke my leg and I slowly figured out how to deal with it, hopefully this will help if you have broken your leg.

    Thank you for your video! I'm in the US, btw. I just broke my fibula yesterday and am in a full leg splint (getting a cast tomorrow). It's going to be hard, but your video has given me confidence to move about. We have a tub/shower, not a walk-in shower like you, so I'm dreading having to deal with that! Also glad to know that maybe I will get a lower leg cast 1/2 way through like you did. Thanks again and I hope you've recovered!

    This was SO useful my daughter. She has also been watching The Simpsons every day and is getting fed up of the full leg cast

    My daughter’s going to be in a cast and this is the most helpful information I’ve found so far. Thank you for making this!

    Thanks for this - the tip to use crutches to help with dressing was great.

    Thank you for your hints and tips! I fell over yesterday and I am in a full leg cast. Not happy at all but at least your video gave me some ideas. I wasn’t offered blood thinners and so I am going to talk with the fracture clinic about this. Your video is appreciated thanks!

    Thanks for the video. Useful tips. Appreciated. Just got full cast on right leg. Fortunately only fibula with a hair line fracture but torn ligaments in ankle so its weight bearing already but 6 weeks is daunting - this helped

      Hi Lorraine! How’s your leg? I hope it is fully healed. 💗☺️

    Thank you for this. I shattered my tibia plateau 2 weeks ago, had surgery on 03/10/21 and cannot use my crutches. I’m sinking into depression and can’t imagine getting better. Your video has given me some hope.

      You’ll get used to it very quickly and you won’t even notice it, it will feel like normal

    Thanks for making this video. The tip on the sneaker is ++. My son is trying to figure out the leg extension on wheelchair... He has to put a rope on his toes and pull it taut to keep casted leg straight. Did you deal with that? Or have a better solution?
