pictures of my foot

{ 10:34, 2008-Jan-23 } { 5 comments } { Link }

I have pictures to share and to just keep in here for me to see how much I heal.  I broke both bone in my right leg and my ankle on 12-27-07 had surgery on 12-28-07.  I have 2 plates, 2 pins and 8 screws.  All this just for cleaning our favorite creek.

Here is the 1st picture taken on 1-14-08:

See how big and thick this cast is?

  Here is a picture of the same wound :

A lot of healing from before

next is of the other side of my foot:

I got all my stitches out all 19 of them.

but I can not put any weight in it until the end of march and I have a nice dark blue 4 lb cast on now.

I want to say thank you to Elllsmira, she told me how to post pictures, Thank you.

God Bless all,     mj

Please rest

My, my, but that looks very painful!!! I am an old ICU nurse, and I must agree with your doctor! Too many people try to do too much to soon and suffer greatly for it. Since your foot will bear many pounds per square in of your body weight and whatever it is that happens to be in your hands/ as well as the incline of where you are...it needs to be fully healed. God has given you this time of rest, as painful as it is (physically and mentally). I, too would go nuts watching everyone doing my work load, but what a blessing to have raised daughters to do what you do, and to have a husband who loves you and wants to serve you. So, I encourage you to grab a good book and allow you foot to heal, and enjoy the fruit of your labors by watching (and praising) your family efforts. They are efforts of love. I do hope and pray your foot and ankle heal quickly, and you are up and about doing the things you want to do. I enjoy reading your blog, please keep everyone updated on your progress.
Sincerely,
Sharon

Oh, my, MJ it looks so painful. My daughter broke her arm a couple of years ago, requiring surgery. It was hard on all of us but especially her. I pray you heal fast.
Blessings,
Trixi

After seeing what they have done, I would agree not to bear any weight what so ever on your foot. You don't want to move anything around inside until it is fully healed. I had screws put in my ankle when I broke it and had to do the same thing. Get your pile of books and crafts and relax. If you need any free patterns, email me and I will give you a list of my favorite sites.

I feel your pain. A few years ago I fell down my front steps and broke my foot. I too had to have surgery and couldn't walk for 4 months. Can you say miserable? I was soooooo that. I have some nice little scars on both sides of my ankle too. Take care of yourself and enjoy the rest, lol............Kitty

Ouch!

Honey, that looks so painful! You are a wonder to still do all that you do! Please follow your dr's advice and stay off of it until the healing process is finished. While I am one of the most blesed people, because I have never had a broken bone, I do know they can take soooo long to heal. Todd broke his playing football. Got a compound spiral fracture of his femur, and spent six weeks in the hospital in skeletal traction and another six in a hip to thigh cast at home. He had therapy for six months. That was a loooonnngggg winter, let me tell you!
I will be praying for you, Sis!
