Its been an upsetting day, the orthopedic surgeon said this injury to my foot could be life changing. The joint in the middle of the foot is all destroyed. I will have surgery tuesday to place three screws in my foot.
I am out of work for at least two months, I did just start in a new job, although its all with the state so I should be okay.
The doc said if I had a job that required me to be on my feet I would most likely have to retire.
I don't know how I am going to manage being totally reliant on my husband. This is going to be hell but if I mess up the screws then my ability to walk will be jeapordized...this just sucks.
I had an ekg and blood work to prepare for the surgery and got what they call a splint but for all intents and purposes its a cast up to my knee.
