He has been locked at 80 degrees for bending. He gets to bump it to 90 today, but at therapy he was able to bend it without the brace at 93. They said keep it at 90 for a day or so and make sure its still easy and then he can bump it to 100. They said Monday he will get new exercises and he is almost to the point he can start doing the bike.
