A great guy in an ageny that catches a lot of heat, simply because of media bias towards the current
president.

So how is your foot doing John?

Yesterday the doc said it looked great. 'All the hardware is intact and not loosening' according to
the X-rays. And, he said I could walk in regular shoes and drive. So, all sounded well...

But then I got home, put on some shoes, and tried walking. Holy ****, it hurts! Not using the
muscles or joints for two and a half months definitely causes some pain when starting again. I'm
hoping it'll go away, but it'll take a few weeks and lots of PT. Here I was thinking, yesterday,
that I'd mow the lawn today. Right! I have a hard time getting to the bathroom.

But, I'm happy with the outcome so far. At least I can drive, and my handicapped placard is good for
another month.

Make sure you wear a shoe with good padding on the soles. A cross
trainer or running shoe works. I healed my plantar tendon damage by
just wearing soft shoes for 6 months.
Your muscles and joints will come back pretty fast and your body will
tell you when enough is enough. You will be out there chasing that
little white ball soon.
