OP here again. Was cleared to work on weight bearing by my surgeon! Been working with PT on range of motion exercises for a month, now working on my first steps again. PT expects me to be crutch free in 1-1.5 weeks, and out of my walking boot in another week after that.
The wrinkle is that it is not readily apparent that blood flow has been restored to the smaller bone fragments. This could lead to failure of the bone, and additional complications later. Doesn't seem like a full recovery from a break of the talus bone in the ankle is very common. However, I am looking forward to walking on my own again!
