On Monday I got a call from my mom. She had any appointment to see if she was able to get the body brace off. While there they took a bunch of x-rays of all over and told her that she was able to ditch both the body brace and the neck brace. The bones aren't fully healed, but they are enough to start supporting weight and movement. She was making sure to make no sudden movements to not upset anything. She wasn't sure if she was allowed to drive or not yet.
She let me know on Wednesday that she went through her first round of PT. There were some leg things like bridges, shoulder blade squeezes, and my mom was told to try and keep her head back more in general.
Everything is going well so far, and we can all knock on wood and keep fingers crossed that it keeps going in that direction.
