I love the Harry Styles t shirt 😍🤣

Harriet, I Love your videos!! They are such an inspiration!! I'm 68 and 2 weeks PO from a TPF. My surgeon has me in a padded soft cast, no brace! I see him next week!! Very curious if I will have a brace 🤔 I've been told NWB for 10 weeks! I'm in awe of you because you did it so much sooner! You Rock!! I just want to be able to Dance 💃 again!! And Travel!!

I'm so sorry but it's really annoying me, I recognised the song/theme tune you guys sang at 5:48 and I'm now trying for the life of me to remember what it is - please end my suffering!?

It’s so funny you mentioned ‘Warriors’ on yesterday’s upload, you were the first person I’d heard speak about it. Today I listened to the new Lonely Island & Seth Meyers podcast episode and Andy Samberg mentioned it, saying how not many people are talking about it! I’ll give it a listen, you are a trailblazer, my friend! 👏🏻🎉

That accent, woooo, smokin'!

I have a special zimmer bag which is a game changer for sure!

I’m 2 weeks post op. I only have 2 little stitches at each end of the scar, the rest has been glued! Oh the aching and not being able to get comfy.

hi

Missed your vlogs x

Thanks for using my song ❤❤

Love your positivity!

firstly, love your hair! and your tan looks divine! so glad you're okay. and maybe donate your brace? like maybe someone could rent it or something?

After falling down stairs I Had tibial plateau fracture in three places. Really Bad break with sever damage to peroneal nerve with loss of function to foot/ankle/big toe Had surgery July 26,2024. Today Oct 9,2025 after 9 weeks of dreadfully painful physical therapy I can only reach 94 degrees flexion so I’ll be having surgery next week to remove scar tissue and have manipulation under anesthesia. I’ve been wheelchair bound since accident. Hopefully surgery is successful and I can get back to walking real soon. Surgeon has said if I had started bending knee directly after surgery things would have been way less painful I had to change hospitals after surgery and there was a communication issue where my doc orders were not transferred and physical therapy was not initiated in a timely manner. I’m really Nervous about the next surgery . I’ve been through so much already.

Miss what year do we go on a ski trip?

I didn't have surgery but I had a tibial plateau fracture as well as spiral fractures in the tibia and fibula.At 11 weeks my knee is still swollen above and stiff.The Dr said I can put full weight on it and Don t need brace anymore.My toes and foot are sore when I put weight on it and my knee is sore and cant bend too much.I will be doing PT so I hope it improves.It seems like it will never be normal again but that's probably just fear.I exercise it every day and have to take pain relievers.I am progressing but cant wait to be normal again.

In my case, one of my oxes fell on me while he was undergoing a minor but emergency procedure under mild sedation.

Week 1 and bloody uncomfortable. Low, constant pain and soreness. Going to be a long haul.

It’s 3 months since my surgery I can’t fully extend my knee did anyone else had this issue?

I have the same fracture. This is is helpful knowing what is to come. Thank you.

U did well with recovery i am in the same boat

I broke my Tibia Plateu Fracture playing football ⚽️. No contact just by myself I was running and I stepped kind of weird because of the turf and felt two pops. I initially thought it was my ACL as that is a common injury in football but when I got to the ER they did X rays and some other type of scan and that’s when I found out that I had broken my Tibia. Fast forward to 6/9/24 I get my surgery and honestly I was so excited to get fixed up but yet so nervous as this was my first serious injury and I gotta say surgery and waking up has been the most painful part of this injury. Right now I’m on week one and I’m having trouble finding a comfortable way to sleep. I have yet to see my scar and I also didn’t get a chance to speak to my surgeon when I woke up to find out how many screws I have inside my leg. The hardest part about being hurt is accepting that my knee will probably never be the same. It honestly makes me shed a couple tears and it’s just hard to accept. I no longer trust my body and like you said it might all be mental.

What's your hair colour? It's stunning xx

You have done well with pain relief & bending, your progress is ahead of mine - thankyou for sharing this

Well done! Those look great! I'm a year behind on my watching (and editing) lol sorry! 😂

this was reapired by some random guy in 2009 don't know his name

Never knew solo dates were a thing. I guess I’ve been having dates with myself for the past 3 years 😂

Thanks you are my inspiration for healing ❤ I watched your first video while I had to wait 17 day for surgery I will be 6 weeks PO tomorrow start PT next week. Thanks for showing me you can be normal again ❤ So many people are negative, I am planning to work hard and at 6 week PO my scar is looking nice ( I didn’t pick it 😜) I am 68 so I have to be a little more careful exercising but I will work on it for sure! I notice my hardware looks so similar to your except opposite side of the leg still left leg though! Anyway prayers for you as you continue your most excellent life 🙏

aqua jogging might be a good step before progressing to a run

so glad you’re doing well-love that top!!

Hi, discovered your 1st video while spending the weekend in hospital having done the same thing awaiting ORIF and was a really good idea of what to expect. 4 and a bit weeks post surgery now and whilst I suppose I can’t complain at rate of recovery so far it is becoming incredibly frustrating kind of not being a total invalid but not being able to do all that much either. All the best.

Was literally thinking earlier how you hadn’t uploaded for a while and how you’re doing. Nice to see you back and well. Am hoping that means a vlog will be coming soon 🤭 loving the copper hair!

Were you good on your crutches?

Hello Iam philbert from Africa Tanzania,Iam going through the same as this procedure of yours very sorry for you what I may ask is how did you manage to fold your leg to 103°

I sure needed this 💪 thank you⚘️ I am in my week 4 hope you let us know how are you doing now...

OMG you got your braces off ? can you do a braces update video ? do you wear retainers now ?

Hello Harriet, Thank you for sharing. Your video has been quite helpful and informative. I had a similar injury and I am currently 3 weeks post surgery, non-weight bearing and my brace is set at 90 degrees. My question is with the 90 degree angle on your brace, how often and how long are you keeping it at the angle? I can only manage a couple of minutes at a time every couple of hours otherwise it’s straight/elavated most of the time? What’s been your experience?

Thank you for sharing your experience… I was thinking of sharing my story as a much older patient of 68 so I really hope you won’t mind me sharing some of my experience here… I got my tibial plateau fracture in a cycling accident… fortunately for me it was decided that I wouldn’t have a operation but they have told me that there is a real possibility of arthritis in the future and I may need a knee replacement… it’s amazing how differently the treatments can be maybe because I have no pins holding the fracture in place though … I was absolutely told no weight baring for 6 weeks and was given no physio… though I was told that I didn’t need to wear the brace when I was resting right from week 2 by then all of my swelling had gone down. By week 3 I did start some exercises after looking for advice from KZbin physiotherapists but none of that was weight bearing. My week 6 xray showed good attachment of the bone and now Week 7 to 9 I have been advised for partial weight bearing still using crutches. Still no physio but just told to gradually keep increasing this. I am in week eight now and still have some strange sensations like my foot doesn’t quite belong to me although I have complete control over the movement of it. Of course these fractures are not just bone but cartilage tendons nerves muscles and fascia! So some of this stuff takes longer than a break to get better. I started using comfrey (knit bone) from the get go and like you magnesium to support recovery. Something else I found super helpful was meditation and I invested in a subscription to insight timer for £5.99!a month … there are so many healing meditations you can access .. I am particularly finding davidji super helpful… it’s all about staying positive about your recovery.. mind over matter… I wish everyone going through this the very best in their recovery back to full mobility 🙏🙏🙏

Wow! You are not having any PT or many restrictions...probably why you are walking already...meanwhile, I had 3 months no weight bearing and lost the bend in my knee. I am in Outpatient Therapy learning to walk with a walker and trying to bend my knee again. I chose wheelchair initially due to no weight bearing, crutches seem very scary. Dish Tub to carry food or plates out of kitchen... Ramps off Amazon to get out the door... Adjustable Bed helped alot! Portable Commode... Shampoo caps when I couldn't wash my hair. Sounds like you will be recovered soon!

Your cameraman during your jump sucks! 😂

It's been 3 week i still can't walk😢

Thank you for sharing your story! I suffered a type 6 back in December 26th and am doing significantly better now. Just can’t sprint really. I did unfortunately develop a DVT which put me on an oral blood thinner which I finished the beginning of April. I broke mine playing sports and stepping awkwardly, what a boring way to break your leg. I’m glad you are recovering well, being young certainly helps. I am 25 years old

full WB at week 4! quite unusual

Thanks for the video, I am 2 days post op and appreciate the insight on what is coming.

£5 for 1 doughnut! Nope, never doing that!

Thank you for sharing your journey with us. Im on my 5th week still not weight bearing🙂‍↕️ but sure ill be fine.

This is so beautiful!!! OKAY!!! Your very much inspiring me to do this on my hair! I have a few honey highlights but have light brown roots which I hate seeing roots! Can’t wait to go to the store and do this!!

I’m glad you are recovering ❤️‍🩹 lovie!!! Take care!

Thank you for sharing your journey and pointing me to the FB group. Lots of encouragement here and there. I’m 6.5 weeks post injury/ 5.5 weeks PO….still NWB but in PT. Looking forward to my f/u next week …
