So sorry to hear that. If that happened to me they would have to put me down. I broke my foot once. Well actually chipped off a piece of bone in my foot. I caught the heel of my shoe in my pants cuff and fell down the stairs. I was miserable with a cast up to my knee. I'll be praying for you. I hope it doesn't get too warm because the sweat inside the cast can get nasty. I hope the pain meds work and doesn't cause additional problems.

I told her you were all asking, but she is kinda medicated, and more than a bit grouchy, so she said is best to just say thank you and she will wander by when she can. its been a horrible ordeal on top of everything else. The pictures were gruesome! made me cringe.

I feel a bit bad to have dragged the thread up now, but all the same, healing thoughts and prayers coming your way. Get well soon. x

She fell again, and split open he incision. its infected anyway she said. so, she went off to get it closed. She has been thru the wringer lately.

She said to say hello, but she is up to her armpits in crocodiles and it will be a while before she can stop in.

Hi dejibo
 
Keep telling leggs we all care about her. I am so sorry that happened to her. ginnie:hug:

The exam revealed that her new screws are crooked and pulled out, so she will have to have the surgery REDONE! she is upset and it will take another 12 weeks to recover. They are talking about slapping her in a rehab place to force her to GET OFF THAT FOOT! when she is at home, she has children to watch, a husband to care for, and a house to run with animals that need her. So...it continues.

Oh Dejibo, no....
 
What did leggs do, get up too soon? I can't believe she has to do this whole thing over again.
I face having my foot rebuilt, tendon transfers, archilles, post tibial, all of it. I will be off my foot like that too for many many months. No weight bearing at all for three months. I will have pins, and plates in parts too. I am scared to death.
I am sorry this happened to leggs. How did the re-injury occure? Did she really get up on it? all my best to you and to leggs ginnie:eek::hug:
