Hi Marsha! If all goes well you'll be walking with barely any pain by the time therapy is over. If I'm completely honest though, walking with the boot on will be pretty easy, it's walking on your bare foot that might cause you some problems. Since you won't have any bend in the ankle, you'll have to adjust to how it feels like to shift weight onto the front part of your foot. I suggest some mbts or rocker bottom shoes for when you go out. They work like the bottom of a walking boot. I remember what recovery was like, but it went by fast so you'll get there! GL!
