Bloody Toe....

So I went to the doc today for my follow up. It appears the breaks have gotten worse in my foot.

What he did to start with was just splint the toe, and hope that over a week or so the bone would mend itself. But it seems the opposite has happened. Because I've continued to be active etc, I've caused the bones to seperate even further.

The x-ray they took tonight looks just the same as last week when I did it. Which isn't a good thing apparently.

So this Friday I go for surgery to place a couple of wires into my toe to help the process of healing. I'm not sure if he means steel rods or just a few bits of chicken wire. Guess I'll find out soon. The doc wanted to do it Saturday night, with me staying in hospital overnight til Sunday arvo.

No way in hell. The Hawks play Sydney on Sunday arvo, and I have it live on tv so I'm going to be home watching it with several cold brews. So I bartered with him, and got Friday at 5pm is the time. I get out of hospital Sat arvo. i'm on crutches for 3 weeks, and 6 weeks later the toe should be good.

So I've done a bloody good job on it. No half hearted attempt here. Good for me.

Anyways, it's late, I gotta get some sleep. I'll chat later

Cheers
