Glad I could be  part of keeping you moving Ed. 

Thank you schmuckface,  I forgot where I was posting.   I hereby retract any apologies.  I'm really not sorry.   TCD

Nope - Some Red and sprinkle in some White Stars ... I'm going to sport the Red, White and Blue!

Saturday was the St. George Island Sizzler 5K ... and it was Sizzling! Temps over 100°. I only have a few photos so far - more are on the way:

Sadly, his sister was not empathetic when he told me it was hurting. :(  Now I feel a little guilty. Of course, I figure he probably did it on purpose to get out of cooking and cleaning! :) I hope he will stay off of it like the doctor said so that it can heal. Y'all might want to keep me in your thoughts as I deal with Grumpy Laid-Up Ed! lol Just kidding. I just hope it heals well and he is able to be up and about soon!

Most of the treatment plan came from his supervisor, but I do like the new Doctor ... he's willing to listen and knows he doesn't know everything. When I mentioned things he wasn't familiar with, I used it as an opportunity to educate him some. I have a few more years dealing with my medical problems than he does, so I have a better understanding of them ... and he's willing to recognize that. He's a keeper.

Sounds like there may be a little light at the end of the tunnel.  Good luck.

Good to hear from you, been wondering how you were doing.. Has the foot healed up any? Will continue praying for you.. BigTom    PS ; I have a 4 wheel electric cart in my barn, bought when I had my spell, if you ever need to borrow it..

Minimal change in the foot - even with lots of calcium, D3 and the bone growth stimulator. I see the doctor again on January 8. Not expecting big changes, but there should be some evidence of healing.

It is 1-8 praying for a good report, keep us informed.

Actually, more healing than expected. Take the boot off and wear a shoe some to build the muscle tone back up. When it starts to ache some - and it WILL start to hurt, put the boot back on.

I'm taking this with a grain of salt until I see the Radiologist report next week. Last time the doctor said 40% healed and the Radiologist said minimal change o/O ...
