Wow how time flies!!! I just read back about the past year and a half. What an incredible journey. I was curious to see if I would have changed any of the decisions that were made. I have to tell you that it all was done the best way to come to the best outcome.
I very rarely have any swelling in my foot now. There are still many shoes that I can't wear because my injured foot is still bigger around the joint. I don't have a limp at all. If I have been sitting for a long period of time, it does take a few steps to 'loosen' up the joint. If I am wearing running shoes (which I tend to do often) I am quite comfortable. I gave up on high heels. Flat shoes are very painful. Not worth it anymore. But with the right shoes I feel I could walk for however long I wanted now.
It's not 100%, I still can't squeeze my toes as much and I still have the numbness across the top of my foot. The shape of my foot is completely different too.
I still would not have changed a thing and I am very thankful for the wonderful Doctors that I had.
About Me
- Kim
- I was born in the late 50's. I grew up with both my Mom and Dad. I am the oldest of three daughters. My one sister is 1 1/2 years younger than me. She was so wild she made me look like an angel. My youngest sister is 6 years younger than me and always the most spoiled. I got married when I was 22 and had two beautiful sons by the time I was 28. I began working in the 'family' business in 1990 and have absolutely loved every single minute. Unfortunately I became a single parent when the kids were 10 and 12. I was lucky to have shared 9 years with a man I considered to be my best friend. All of these things have shaped the person I am today. Some experiences have been thrilling, others have been brutally terrifying. We are all shaped and molded by our experiences. I can honestly say that 2004 - 2007 has forever changed who I am. I am still trying to figure out where to go from here.
