How are the feet today? Any better?

Not really...I'm favoring the bad leg which puts more pressure on the good one....it's like my heal is getting bruised by the favoring? It will get better...the last time I broke it (tibia and fibia) it took a year before this problem went away and I finally quit favoring it.

Well you're still in our thoughts. Hope it get's better quickly.

Morning folks

Morning all

Well you're still in our thoughts. Hope it get's better quickly.

Sorry to read about your foot shop. I didn't realize you had broken it. Was it a work accident?

It wasn't my foot, it was my hip. Broke the ball of the femur...an impacted fracture. It healed just fine, then as I was going to the doc to get a release to go back to work, it broke again as I was walking out the door, it snapped right where it had been repaired, actually it shattered. It was way more complicated on the second break, that's one reason it has taken a year to heal.
And no, it wasn't work related, I was feeding my birds when I tripped and fell with all my weight on my hip.

Thanks Bob

Ouch! That sounds difficult to deal with. The only bone I've ever broke was my collarbone, I can't even imagine breaking a hip. Sending all my good vibes, and best wishes for you're recovery, Sean.

Thanks Chris, if I didn't have a high tolerance to pain, it would have been really horrible.

Hey der everybody! .. AND ChickieMama!!

Gosh, that sounds awful! My mom fell last year on Mother’s Day and broke her hip too.. she had surgery and has a pipe through hip and one down her thigh ... I tease her and tell her it’s PVC piping ... she believes me .... but she was back in her home (on my property) taking care of herself and doing all she has done before on her own.. by October... 5 months later ... the doctors are shocked by her..! She is a tiny thing!
This is her with two of my boys.. on their knees ... but they are quite tall!
