It's Done and Happy Thanksgiving!

I am immobile as I could be. Today will be very interesting since I've cooked the Thanksgiving dinner for the last 25 years! I think they got it dinked though.

The surgery went well. I was cut in 3 places - 1 being the actual Peroneal Tendon repair and the other two were pieces of bone he had to cut out so that I could walk straight. I have very high arches and a natural suponation to my foot.

The pain is not really bad. I thought it was going to be worse. I had a block and that's all but worn off. He sent me home with Hydrocodone/Acetominophen - which works great as long as I have food in my stomach.

I go back to see Dr. on Monday for Post Op check, but I have to be in this cast for 6 weeks! That means crutches too.

I think by Spring, I'll be able to walk again. That's what he says and that's what I hope.

My dogs can't figure out what's wrong, but they do know something is up. Momma can't take us outside anymore! :-(

Happy Thanksgiving to you all and well, I'll just be sitting here watching the day go by.

I'm very thankful for my family. They rose above and beyond to help me and they still continue to do so. God has blessed me so much.

Thank you Lord!
