I had my appointment with Dr. Surfer Dude, who has become a brunette...must be his Dr. Snowboarder persona for the winter. He is a fabulous trauma orthopod who I will not hesitate to send people to in the future, in spite of his tender years. He was very pleased with my graft, commenting that I had 100% take, with his usual being 80%, but then amending that with "but there's nothing wrong with YOU". I have to keep wearing my splint while up and about, and be nonweight-bearing for another 3 weeks. After that, I will see him and hopefully he will release me to go back to work!!!!!!!
He said that I couldn't start "pounding" my foot for 12 weeks, so I suppose my original goal (pre necrotizing fasciitis) of running Rocky Raccoon 100 on my 50th birthday this February is out......(how did I know this......) Maybe I can walk around the block on my birthday! I'll take it!

Does Dr. Surfer Dude know Dr. Wocka Wocka?
Glad your graft took!
Laura, you crack me up!
Glad you're healing well.
Is Doc Surfer Dude single?!
;)
Wish I could do more for you right now.
Can't wait to hear what it's like your first time riding again...
Hugs,
Connie :)
