Francine:

I got up the same day and started walking. They make you get up on the same day and start to walk. And once I got up and started walking, the physical shape that I was in allowed me to go further, faster around the hospital floor than a lot of other people, and also if you take the pain meds the way you are supposed to, you can rehabilitate faster.
