I know I have some followers on my blog for my CMT posts (Hello! *waves*). This post is for you!<\/p>\n

The leg braces I wore for the past 3 years were starting to wear down my knees. But because the heel of my left foot could not reach the floor, they couldn’t fit me into better ones. So mission #1 – completely rebuild the foot.<\/p>\n

That’s what I had done on June 10th. Now, I’m a strong girl. I’ve gone through a ton of crappy things in my life, but I’ve always felt that everything I’ve gone through has made me stronger. \u00a0This past week of recovery has definitely been the hardest thing I’ve ever done.<\/p>\n

On my left foot my surgeon did eight major and two minor surgeries. I have 8 incisions. I couldn’t look at it before they casted it on the 11th. He told my husband that it looked like it was in a shark attack. When I finally had the guts to look at it tonight I see just how right he was.<\/p>\n

Shark Bait Hoo Ha Ha.<\/i><\/p>\n

This was what my foot looked like this morning. My surgeon said it looks good –>.
\nHa.
\nBut then I came home to an unspeakable amount of pain that my pain medication is barely making a dent in. I hope it’s better tomorrow. I’ve had a few people ask me when I’m getting my other foot done. At this point, never. But we’ll see once it’s healed. Maybe I’ll change my mind someday so I’ll have matching feet. Maybe someday I’ll forget how badly this one hurt. Maybe.<\/p>\n
