Brooke Shields is putting her best foot forward after breaking her leg.
On Feb. 21, the actress posted a video of herself gingerly walking with the assistance of crutches — this after she revealed on Instagram that she broke her femur, the largest bone in a person's body.
"Broke my femur. Beginning to mend. No matter what your challenge is, make a positive choice, for yourself, to move forward," she captioned the video. Brooke added the hashtag "beginning is now."
In the video, which appears to have been shot inside the hospital, Brooke is heard speaking to a medical professional while struggling to walk. She refers to her broken leg as "bad boy."
"There's only 20% weight. The goal is to to bend your knee each time like a little bit, just so you're not dragging it or hitching up your hip, correct?" she asks.

After posting the video on Instagram, many of Brooke's celebrity pals offered support in the comments section.
"Brooke! So sorry! Courage…it's in your blood," Glenn Close wrote.
Helena Christensen commented, "So glad I got to see you baby you looked so well and beautiful and I know this is a tough one."
Others sending support included Sharon Stone, Stephanie March and Jennifer Beals.
