I saw my surgeon yesterday and he’s pretty happy with how things are progressing.  He put in four screws along with the bone graft.   I will be off work a couple more days then it’s full time.  You will be seeing me zip up and down the halls on my knee scooter (which I might add needs nubby tires for snow traction).   They took out my stitches, put on Steri-Strips, and then put me in a nice purple cast.   I’ve never had a real cast before, so it’s been an adjustment. It’s driving me crazy where my foot normally bends.  The incision sites itch like crazy, so that doesn’t help.  The place in my hip where they took donor bone still hurts, so real chair sitting is still uncomfortable (hence the few more days off and a few extra pain meds).  Daddy took pictures of everything - cast removal, stitch removal, my wounds.  I’ll post a few, but leave it up to you to look at them. They will be at the very end of this post.  I won’t post the more graphic of them - yuck.   I feel much better since the flu and I’m gaining energy, so life is getting better.
