day 21 - later

Since I'm trying to keep an eye on swelling, I was looking closely at the foot and noticed something. Before surgery, I'd been walking on the side of my foot and the place the edge of my foot met the floor was exactly where I'd had my Jones fracture - so I was walking on the screw they used to fix it. That screw exactly lined up with the edge of my foot so not only was I walking on it, it was probably being pushed upwards just a teeny bit with every step. No wonder it hurt! That spot is now about 1/2 an inch up from where my foot will hit the floor. Weird. It will be interesting to see how all this plays out. Can't wait to walk!
