...in several ways :)

Yup, my life is beginning to get better. And now I'm talking about everything from my relationship with my parents, to how I cope in school, to my physical and mental health. Everything is just seeming to get better and better all the time.

Today, I finally got my brace off. The one I've worn on my leg for 6 weeks straight now. I had imagined it would be painful as heck to start bending my knee again, but that's not the case. Not to the extent I'd feared, anyway. I can actually bend it into about 30-35 degrees before it starts hurting. And even then, we're not talking about the excruciating pain I'd imagined would come. Getting my brace off, and getting the all-clear from my doctor, means that I now walk unaided. Less than an hour after getting the brace off, I ditched the crutches for anything other than walking stairs. And yet another hour later, I had stopped using them even for stairs. I will hold onto the railing when walking in stairs, but nothing beyond that. And this all means that maybe I'll be able to go bowling on my birthday after all. It's only two weeks until my birthday, but I sincerely expect to have recovered fully by then. Not only the injury having recovered, but also having loosened up the stiffness in my knee.
Also, I've gotten a new appointment at the National Hospital. After my initial appointment was cancelled, I have now been given a new appointment in late February. I can't say I was pleased with having to wait for so long, but at least now I have an appointment date.
My dad has also let me have back full internet on both my computer and my phone. I had to agree to less-than-ideal conditions to get it back, but it was totally worth it in the end!

So I'd say my life is definitely getting better. Things are improving rapidly. Some of it might be down to me becoming more mature, but I think that in a lot of cases we're talking about real improvement, not just improvement through altered perception.
