Ok, while my feet aren't quite this bad, I have had problems with my feet pretty much all my life. Andy affectionately calls them hobbit feet, and has banned me from putting my hobbit feet on his dashboard in his car. So what if it's a BMW right? :-) Well, I had surgery on July 11th, to remove a bunion or 6th knuckle as Andy likes to call it, and re-align my bones to actually give me an arch. So I'll be out of commission for awhile, I'm coherent enough right now to post. The pain meds I'm on, hit me like a truck and I'm usually out for 2 hours or so after I take one and I can't drive. I've pretty much just been laying in bed or for a change of scenery I scoot down the stairs and lay on the couch. The pain meds make me dizzy and its kinda gnarly trying to go down the stairs on crutches so I have opted to just scoot on my butt down, and up. I've got a walking cast I'll be wearing for about 8 weeks, until my left foot can stabilize enough for me to have my right one done too. Right now everything is healing well, no infection so as long as I can mange the pain I'll be good to go. Oscar hates the walking cast, he growled and yowled at it the first time he saw it, that was pretty funny.
I'll update more soon....
