And the recovery continues......

 Day 1

Day 9

Well, my pity party isn't going quite as strong as it was the other day, but it's still hanging on just a bit!  I was able to get a walking boot on Thursday and see what had been done to my foot.  I'm intrigued by the incision and all the brusing but decided not to share on Facebook!  Each day is better-the pain is subsiding and I'm almost drug free. I actually drove today-not far, just up the street but it was so nice to get out of the house and have a little freedom.  I can't stand for any length of time but as long as I'm moving forward with my healing, then I need to be thankful for that!

Pity Party

I'm having a pity party for myself today.  Actually, it started yesterday and will probably continue into the week.  Thanks to my dad, I have bunions.  Yes, they are hereditary and I am lucky enough to have them on both feet.   It's been years in the making but I needed to finally bite the bullet and have them taken care of.  Left foot was done two days ago.  Who knows when I'll have the right foot done 'cause the whole thing sucks!They had to cut tendons and put a pin in my foot at the joint. It hurts like hell. I can't put any weight on my foot at all until I go back to the doctor on the 13th.  At all.  I need help with everything.  I'm not good at asking for help. WAH!!!!
