Jackie knocked on the door and stood proud, as she hardly needed her crutches to lean on. It felt good to smile at a friendly face when Carrie opened the door.

“I can see someone’s had a productive weekend. How does it feel to be standing without much support?”

“It feels excellent,” she replied. “With the help of the twins, I even practiced without my crutches.”

“That’s great. So, depending on how fast you improve, you could be discharged soon.”

Jackie’s mouth fell open. “Are you serious?”

Carrie stepped back to allow her patient into the room, then closed the door softly behind her. “If you get on okay, I can’t see there being a problem.”

“Okay, Ms. Spencer, let’s get this party started. I’ve got lots to do today.”

Over the session, Jackie filled Carrie in on what had happened over the weekend. Including the fact that she needed to find a new house, which threw Carrie, who promptly offered to help with the search.

“You should’ve seen Dave, though,” Jackie grunted, as she raised her leg to take a step. “Dad gave him a bloody good pasting, and the MP’s threw him out. The stupid sod even tried to lie to the twins about who the woman was. He told them she was the cleaner.”

Carrie bit down on her lower lip, she wanted to laugh, but understood the seriousness of the situation.

“I’ve decided I’m going to file for divorce. After his infidelities, it’s a no brainer. I can’t trust him anymore, and I hate people who lie to me.” She took two steps, then looked straight at Carrie. “Holy shit! I just walked unaided.”

“Yes you did.”

Jackie reached out and snagged Carrie’s shirt and pulled her in for a hug. “I can’t believe it!”

“Well done, Jackie.”

Jackie pulled back “Hey, don’t start crying, you’ll set me off.”

“I’m just so happy for you.”

“Be happy for me when I can finally walk out of here with my family. We can really celebrate then.” Jackie turned to face the direction she’d just come from. “Okay, here we go...back the other way.”
