still recovering


Im still recovering from my ankle fusion surgery. This surgery sure has whooped my butt.I am thankful I had it but my surgeon did not fully prepare me as far as the recovery and time frame. I dont know why he was not upfront and brutally honest like I had asked him to be prior to the surgery. I am still in the cam walker boot and still use the wheelchair. I do make myself walk and I am going to try walking more and more. I cant stand being in the wheelchair and it makes you look at the life of someone who wont be as lucky as me and be able to ditch it one day. I gave up the walker and bought a cane. The walker and wheelchair combo would make me laugh because I would feel so elderly and yet in my mind I am still a young girl.

Maybe he wasn't brutally honest because he thought you would have the surgery. ??? Keep getting better! :hug:
