So, one month ago today, I had surgery on my right foot to correct a painful bunion!! They are hereditary and I got them from my dad (Thanks Daddy!). I'll spare you from the feet pictures, but just know that it was a pretty big bunion.
The pain lasted for about two weeks post op. I was able to keep most of it at bay with the pain meds.
The worst part about the whole ordeal is what I call FOOT PRISON! I've been in a walking boot for a whole month now...including sleeping in it to protect my foot as the bones fuse together around the pin.
Ever tried to get outfits to match with a big black boot??
I did, however, add my girly touch to it!!
I have one more week of this boot 24/7. Starting next Wednesday, I can wear a tennis shoe half the day. It will be heaven on earth, I do believe.
I still have to get the left foot done (November/December) but I am so happy to now be on my journey to pain-free feet!
I can't believe the last post I blogged was about the Olympics!! I apologize to my *very small* portion of the blog-o-sphere. I'm going to try and get back on track. I now have a fancy iPad and will be getting an iPhone soon, so it may be easier to keep up with this!
