No more physiotherapy! YIPPEEEEEEE!!!!! I was discharged this morning. I have to wait until tomorrow to receive the final report of my x-ray results from the radiologist, but it certainly appears on initial reading that there is no sign of necrosis setting in. There is what will likely remain a permanent "hitch in my get along" when I go down stairs, but so what? It is a minor inconvenience.
The skill of the surgeons never ceases to amaze me. How can a teeny ankle like mine hold that much metal hardware??? Such precision is needed to attach the pins and plates and screws in just the right places. X-rays fascinate me. I wish I had known more about them when I was still young enough to take courses to become an x-ray technician and have a useful career. But that is a topic for a different blog entry.
So, today I rejoice in what appears to be good news: release from therapy and relief that life goes on as usual. No immediately looming surgeries. I am so very grateful....for so many things.
Now I can concentrate on making a few Christmas plans with my husband. YIPPEEEEEEE!!
