thanks for your prayers. surgery went well a week ago. dr. today said all looks well, and I should get a real cast next week. I've attached some pics of:
me in my chair where I"m stuck 23+ hours a day... So feel free to forward me links to any great online movies
my foot today w/o the splint...
and my x-ray. you can plainly see the screw. above it they drilled a hole and put a thing like a zip-tie w/ a head thru the hole and cinched it tight. he said all hardware should stay in place forever, unless it gives me a problem someday...

Congrats on the baby! I was in a cast when mine was born. Had about 2 weeks of it left, crutches, the whole 9 yards. My regular "non weight bearing cast" became a walking cast VERY quickly. LOL. Doc was not happy...

I scheduled knee surgery back in 2000 so it would be done in March. Twins were due in June. They showed up on April 30. Glad I was back on my feet because that was some serious effort with two preemies on heart monitors for 5 weeks.

Lol. Exact same situation I'm in!
Except I doubt it was your 8th baby We've got plenty of other kids to help out, so hopefully I won't turn mine into a walking cast...

I can't image twins...let alone premies needing extra care!

A friend of friend of mine was seriously injured when she walked into the propeller of a small airplane after taking a flight around the Dallas area the other night to look at Christmas lights. I met Lauren Scruggs a couple times hanging out with mutual friends and this is truly a tragedy. 23 years old, model, and fashion editor. Now lost her left hand and has severe injuries to the left side of her head and shoulder. Pray for her recovery and her family in this time of hardship.
