Update, went for the 3 week check awhile back, and the doctor pretty much said I was more recovered than I should be considering how much time had passed. At that point I was able to put all my weight on that leg without pain, wasnt quite walking unaided, but getting better every day.

I've been attending university for the past 4 weeks using crutches and a moon boot. That hasn't really been an issue.

One month since surgery, i've just started walking around fully unaided without the moon boot or crutches. Limp is pretty annoying, but its not painful, left leg is more sore due to overcompensating with it. Having good shoes really helps too.

Thanks for the sympathy, and thanks for reading.
Should have a picture of the fix soon.

Sounds like great progress on your healing.

Good luck on the Chemical and Materials engineering. Fun stuff.

As with students, we're on holiday for 2 weeks now..

Been told about 12-16 weeks to heal fully to a point where I can ride again. Think I might take up push bike riding in the mean time.

How the firetruck did they get that in there? Did they drill a hole in one end and slide it in, or did they bend your leg at the break and just flex the rod to shove it into both halves at the same time? Just curious.

Hahahaha. The former. Iv got a 3inch scar down my knee where they cut and thread the rod in. Then 3 smaller scars where they put the screws in.
I think its titanium so not particularly bendy, not at room temp anyway
