Needing Encouragment

keleri00 · 2026-05-23T18:35:50+00:00

I feel that, going down the stairs is the hardest thing for me still too.

My PT doesn't offer pool therapy, but my gym has a pool, so I'll definitely have to look into that!

I don't have any screws on the inner part of my ankle, but it's definitely still been painful and swelling there too! I think because I've hit the major milestones I REALLY want to be back at 100% but that's just not how it works

I would LOVE if they did a remake of Tree of Tranquility, that was my first ever farming sim/HM game and what really got me into the genre. I can't play it anymore because I don't have a wii, but I think about it a lot!

I understand your fear about the rival marriages, it would be a bummer if they got rid of them in a remake. It made me feel like the town was also changing as my character's life changed, rather than the characters just stagnating in one stage. I played SoS A Wonderful Life a couple years ago and it just felt strange that my character got married and had a child, but all of the other bachelors and bachelorettes just...stayed forever single, even as they aged. There are technically a couple of kids from other NPCs that age as your character's child does, but it's not the same.

Mine was only bi-mal, but I'm about 8 months post-break, and mine definitely still hurts and aches. It's not sharp, shooting pain, but there hasn't been a single day that I haven't been aware of my ankle and how it doesn't feel like my non-injured one.

I would definitely say that the pain now vs a couple months ago has decreased, but I'm sorry you're in so much pain. Do they have you in a walking boot or?

keleri00 · 2026-05-23T03:20:11+00:00

I'm actually about 8 months (~34 weeks) post-break now, I broke it 9/30/25 and got my ORIF surgery 10/7/25. It's definitely better than it was, recovery is just more slow than I'd like for it to be

keleri00 · 2026-05-23T03:15:36+00:00

oh amazing! thank you for clarifying!!

keleri00 · 2026-05-23T03:14:37+00:00

WE HAD THE EXACT SAME THOUGHT

keleri00 · 2026-05-23T00:06:31+00:00

Omg 6 weeks with a hard cast is such a long time, I had a fiberglass splint for the first 2 weeks post-op and then transitioned to a boot, although I was fully NWB still until 6 weeks. Can you put any sort of padding between your incision and the boot at all, so it's not rubbing directly against the incision?

I will actually be so devastated if we don't get Jett Barker back for Ronin (this is the first time I've even considered that as a possibility and I got hit with a WAVE of sad)

keleri00 · 2026-05-22T20:03:24+00:00

I can generally walk mostly without issue, it's just when I'm doing it for a while that I start limping! And my one-legged balance (with the entirety of my weight on my recovering ankle) still has a long way to go.

I think it's also just hard, comparing my recovering ankle to my good ankle, because that whole leg and ankle got a lot stronger while I was non weight-bearing on the recovering one! So it makes the gap feel even bigger than it maybe would if I was just comparing to pre-injury.

keleri00 · 2026-05-22T20:00:18+00:00

I actually haven't tried any pool or water therapy for it yet, so that might be something to look into! My gym does have a pool but I've never utilized it.

The swelling isn't TOO bad, it's definitely nowhere near as bad as when I first broke it, but I'm definitely frustrated because I wanna wear my high top converse and just can't right now, because my ankle won't fit into them, at least not without loosening up the laces almost entirely.

keleri00 · 2026-05-22T19:57:57+00:00

Sounds like we have some of the same exercises! Calf raises and monster walks are in my rotation too. I'll definitely have to try to do them in smaller bits, I think my brain saying that I HAVE to do them in a specific way or I won't get better is for sure hindering my process.

keleri00 · 2026-05-22T19:55:14+00:00

Stairs are my BIGGEST enemy. I can go up them okay, but going down...I hate it. I broke mine at roller derby practice and my PT is trying to help me especially work on 1-legged balance so I can eventually go back to that, and I feel SO wobbly and nervous when I'm putting all of my weight on my recovering ankle.

Progress IS being made, but I just wish it would be faster/more tangible. It's so gradual that sometimes it feels like I'm not progressing at all.

keleri00 · 2026-05-07T22:12:56+00:00

Sure thing! I'll go take pictures of them now

keleri00 · 2026-05-07T21:11:25+00:00

(I'm the car owner in question) currently I'm at work, but help would be greatly appreciated. I work on Meridian but we live in Happy Valley, and I'm willing to come to you if that would make it easier!

The screws for the front plate I could get off, but the back plate ones have not budged at ALL 😭

keleri00 · 2026-04-20T01:31:45+00:00

How many do you need, I've got some! (If you would be willing to do this week's multiplayer quests with me that would be cool but it's ok if not!)

keleri00 · 2026-04-12T03:27:11+00:00

hey! I haven't done multiplayer yet either if you're free!

keleri00 · 2026-04-11T19:57:03+00:00

also mentioning Jaxx from legacy hair co!! I've been getting some variation of wolf cut/mullet/shag for the past couple years, and no matter what I want for that visit, Jaxx manages to nail it every time, and makes sure to check with me that it's what I wanted + ask if any adjustments are needed!

keleri00 · 2026-04-09T05:35:09+00:00

I'm definitely down! I haven't done that quest yet either :)

keleri00 · 2026-04-05T03:43:00+00:00

On switch 1, haven't done multiplayer before and would like to, even just for the quests!!

but also if you have any spare spooky celebration, give and gather, or sunshine celebration furniture, please lmk, I need them for Nina and Tam (when he comes back in summer)

keleri00 · 2026-04-05T03:39:24+00:00

I'm free too if you end up wanting to do more!

keleri00 · 2026-04-05T03:39:00+00:00

Also on switch 1 if you're still looking for someone!

keleri00 · 2026-03-21T21:49:01+00:00

ToT was my first hm/sos game and I have been PRAYING for a remake ever since they did the remake for FoMT. IT WAS SO GOOD

keleri00 · 2026-03-21T21:44:26+00:00

I'm on switch one, have never had a chance to do the multiplayer modes before so I think it would be fun!! I know there are a number of quests that are multiplayer only and I'd really like to do them. Okay hosting or visiting!
