Today I nearly went crazy!!!! it is calima weather here in Gran Canaria, with South wind making the north shore nice a glassy with off shore winds an nice waves. I can walk already, so it is even more frustrating not to get on the board, but they told me not to be stupid.. at least, not yet!. so instead, i went for some of my firsts swims in the ocean. It felt just great!!!! but it is quite tricky actually. you dont have a good balance at all, and the beaches here are quite rocky, so it was difficult to get on the water without kicking some rocks... in the end we found some nice little "pools" where we could enjoy a bit.. my friends helped me getting in a out of the water, so was all cool, but I realized I am still a bit far from getting on my board... maybe next week??? ;-) well, I got too jump into my new static bike John bought me to train a bit the movement of the foot... it is soooooooo bloody painful trying to walk on my toes! oh well... I will be better soon, I guess!!!
by the way, check out how different color both feet are..
and thanks sooo much to everyone that is sending me nuce supporting emails!!! it is so nice!!!! thanks!

IT IS AAAAAAALLLL GOOD!!!! YEAH!!!!!!!!

Yes!!!!!!! it is solid!!!!! i had some xrays today, and the doctor says it is going as good as it gets! sic! soooo happy. this means my physiotherapist will now kill me with painful exercises. It is ready to go full power into the recovery. so maybe I can at least jump in the ocean with the surf board. Honestly, if I do soon, i will cry as soon as hit the water...
(sorry about the blurry pictures, but they are from my phone and I guess I have to clean a bit the lens, dont I?)
The pic from above is with my surgeon, quite a fun guy...
I am sooo excited about getting on the water soon!!!! lets see how the rehab goes...

SMALL SET BACK AND VIDEO FROM NOVEMBER AND JANUARY
Hello everyone!!!!!!
well, i had a small set back. Do you remember I was walking already?? well, I think that I got too excited and forced it too much. That day I think i forced it too much, at the gym, and going at the sea front twice (with a little help from one crutch, but still..), so by end of the day the foot got painful. the day after it hurted to put pressure on it, so I didnt do any therapy or anything. I am scared I f*cked it up, but they say that it is normal.. well... i will try again today...
Here you have a small video with clips just put together with no music or anything. they are from Maui in November and SA in January, i hope you like it.

NEW EXERCISES!
Hello!!!
I started last week putting some weight on my foot, so with my physiotherapist, Javier Iglesias and the Sport Doctor Javier Hernandez we have started putting some little pressure on the foot already (they are the best guys to cheer you up and the best professional!!! check their website: www.fisiodep.com) . Also i started the gym last week, as the foot feels a lot stronger now, so far I have gone a few times and also swimming a bit, so I am moving forward but I still cant step on my foot.
I had a great weekend. I thought I could never say this on a weekend without windsurfing or surfing, but being injure teaches you to enjoy other things in life. we had amazingly nice weather here in GC. We woke up on saturday on the north shore with bright sunshine and glassy ocean (there was south wind so i guess down there was rough). but here i went to the beach with my mum for a while ( i couldnt remember when was the last time I went to the beach with her!) and we hdd a very nice morning. Then, after having some lunch at home, my friends picked me up to go with them to the beach, so while they were surfing I enjoyed some girly time at the beach. Sunday was also really nice, reading at the beach while my friends surfed, and after we went for lunch and watched the F1 race... in the evening i went to the gym to train a bit my body, so all good! in a way, this period is teaching a few important things... heheheheh
