Well its probably a good thing all was quiet. How did your foot feel at the end of the day?

Thanks!
Well, saw the dr today and the xray I had taken last week is showing healing on the top and side but when you look at the side view it isn't really.
So he told me light duty for another 4 weeks and told him no way!
(smoke crack much?) b/c I have to be up and full time in 3 weeks and that means off crutches. And I'm in a wedding on Dec 29th and that means NO crutches!! It's ridiculous that this has taken this long.
0 I told him the Ortho said I should stay off it for 2-3 weeks and then go about my life. He didn't like me bringing that up.. But handled it well. Said that sometimes these kind of fractures are underestimated.
So basically I'm going to be light duty with light weight bearing for 3 more weeks and then working my way OFF the crutches.
Another xray and see him in a month.....

Staci,

I'm glad you are able to keep your sense of humor through all of this.
Hang in there just a little bit longer if you can.Still praying for a complete
recovery. (((Hugs)))
