Grumble, Grumble

YEAH, Good to know the surgery is behind you. Now concentrate on getting back on your feet/foot! Hope the healing happens quickly.

Look at it this way, it's winter, cold outside, so might as well prop your foot up and heal up from surgery. The weather oughta be better when you're healed up and you'll be able to go do the things you like to do.In the meantime, grumble all you want.

Well, I had the foot surgery today, and I'm sitting here waiting for time to take a pain pill.
My toes are still numb, but the incision site is not.
The surgeon "trimmed down" the bones in my big toe, shaped up the ends of the joint, added a pin in each end, and put in a couple of screws. The result will be the fusion of the joint.
Hopefully by spring it will be good as new.

Good luck-you are very brave.

I'll just be happy to walk and hike.

Amen! Let it happen favorably at the right time!

How are you feeling today

I don't like surgeries. Too much pain or fear of pain. Glad it's over for you. You did pick a good time to have it. Winter is slow for gardening. You should be ready to go when spring comes. I think in a week you will be much better.

How are you feeling today

I'm doing pretty good, thanks, Nyboy. Hobbling around. My DH suggested he strap a piece of 2x4 to the bottom of my good foot, so both legs would be the same length when I try to walk. (thick boot) I just need a couple of big screws sticking out of the sides of my head, to complete the Frankenstein walk.

Welll, he's trying. I'm trying to take Steve's advice and be patient with him.
