After a full day of activity yesterday and having more time to process the news of having the second surgery scheduled, today was rough both physically and emotionally.
I really don't know if my feet or my brain hurt worse. There is an old quote that I learned during my college track days, "The heart achieves what the mind believes." I have stayed really positive and optimistic through the vast majority of my recovery. I have willed myself to heal faster and make major progress...with my left...but then my right just pulled the rug right up from under me. No matter how hard I focus my energy on improving and doing what I need to do to be able to walk normally again, my right foot will need the same surgery.
So hard to deal...
More icing, elevating, and drugs.
Ever seen a flatter foot? This was the beginning of my PTTD surgery journey...
