My foot has healed ahead of schedule, so we're trying to get in for surgery on November 7th, to take the pins/screws out. Then, I should be back in a cast and on crutches for a couple weeks and back in the walking boot for another month. So, by Christmas I should be back in shoes. This has been no vacation. I never would have guessed that it was so dibilitating.

You'll feel like a new person when this is all behind you. I'll keep you in my prayers.

What wonderful news! I think you should ask for shoes for Christmas. I hope all goes well.

I'm glad it's "almost" over (relatively speaking). Good luck!

Thanks Janet, the scar's up pretty high, so I think I'll be OK. I've been wondering if I'll be able to wear my western boots again. They take lots of tugging/wiggling to get them off and on. I love my western boots!
