Just talked to Grace

I told her that you all said hello, and she thought that was so sweet. She had her operation on Friday, they had to put pins in her foot, and she is in a full cast. She said it hurts, but its best if she stays off it and keeps it up. I told her maybe in a week or so if she feels up to some company I will come and visit for a little while. She is hoping by next week to be more mobile and get back to driving. Just wanted to share!

HI!!! Just a quick check in to say I am doing ok except for my tummy. It was all irritated from the antibiotics and the motrin 800mg for inflamation. I am glad I am done with taking them. Just getting frustrated because I am not allowed to even rest my foot down and I can't really do anything. I don't have very good balance standing on one foot and try to do something. So..the house will have to wait until I can get to it. Going down steps still scare me so I go down on my bottom. The foot starts to throb when I put it down for any length of time, so the couch is my biggest friend right now.

I haven't left the house yet, but I do have a doc appointment on Friday. My 2 week check already...hope I can do more after that.

So...thanks for thinking of me. Time to get my foot up again and I will try to check in every now and then. One thing I have to say...good thing I was in some sort of shape before this because I don't know how anyone does this without muscle strength.

Hope to get on the computer more soon and catch up with you all.

Hi, Grace! Happy to hear from you, and that you're feeling better. I have visions of you looking like a flamingo on one leg!

Boy, time flies when you're not the one who's had surgery! ;-) Take it easy, post when you can.

I'm glad she finally got that done. I know its hard to slow down when you have a job like hers. If you see her...give her a hug from the FOF beauties.

Hi, Grace - Been a little behind the pack on reading all the posts. Hope you're feeling a little less throbbing in your foot and your recovery from surgery is swift.

Here's a hug back, Phyllis! It is nice to know that you are all there encouraging me to not go completely crazy being "down", but I am not "out"!! Just think, I have to do this all over again on the other foot!

Hugs..Grace
