My left foot is doing AWESOME. I'm ready to dance a jig. The right foot had a set back a week ago. Remember that pin which stuck out of the side of my big toe joint? Well, Scout jumped out of my jeep and landed on it. Needless to say, it caused some trauma to the site. I snapped the picture below after the doctor pulled the pin out. The wound on my foot was so disturbing that he covered it with a gauze when he walked out of the room, and I couldn't bring myself to lift it. It hurt like a sonofabitch too.
The following two days were super painful. I had to use the crutches again, go back to the pain medication just to get through the night, and also was forced back to antibiotics to treat the new infection that had set in. Whew, my foot swelled up and was bright red.
Today, my right foot is almost recovered from that infection and trauma. However, it remains rather stiff and uncomfortable. I'm slightly concerned that after two surgeries my right big toe may continue to be problematic. I'll have to depend on the big surgeon in the sky to make it right at this point. faith, faith, faith.

Whoa. That's all I can say. I haven't been keeping up with the foot surgery saga. Whoa. They look pretty shnazzy, though :)
