11 Months Post-op
I am counting down the days until my next foot surgery scheduled for October 21, 2015. Now that I know what to expect, I am way less nervous and not an emotional mess like last time. I plan to enjoy my long days with HBO, Netflix and a few borrowed DVDs. I look forward to an early breakfast brought to my bedside by Tim (lucky me!) and sporting a variety of sweat pants for 60 days. I will rediscover my morning routine of non-weight bearing exercise followed by a seated shower and cautious crutching down the stairs by noon. It won't be long until I get to ride in my fancy cycling shoes that have been sitting in my closet for two years. My hope is that my recovery will be similar but I understand that the results of my first surgery won't necessarly predict the healing pattern/outcome of my second surgery. It's hard to believe that almost a year has passed and I'm ready to do this one more time.
I'll soon be able to wear stylish shoes! |
