Went to hospital today and came back today. ( Continued... )

This time next week, my leg will be... ( Continued... )

I had a new x-ray taken today. ( Continued... )

Following this week's clinic visit I've got an important decision to make soon. ( Continued... )

I was busy doing nothing on Tuesday and forgot it was the tenth anniversary of my very first operation. Happy tenth anniversary, my-right-ankle-getting-fixed.

Also, I've now finished all the turning programs. Today was the last day of the second program. I'm so pleased. It's onwards and upwards from now on.

I came home yesterday afternoon. I am quite tired and have been having slight pain relief fail today but am managing it alright. I am due back for a strut change and x-ray later this month so that's ok. Mr Calder decided not to do a bone graft after all, so he just moved the foot to be in the right place and cleaned it all out ready for doing another twenty days of strut turning to push the bones together and encourage the fusion. He said it will be painful and I don't doubt that, having to make the bones crunch into each other is going to be really fun.

Nearly bedtime I think. I've been sleeping quite well really, all things considered.

I'm going back into hospital on Thursday morning. ( Continued... )

Another fortnight, another clinic! ( Continued... )

Today was clinic day! ( Continued... )

Well, this is it really. ( Continued... )
