Sitting here in the ER on Eglin Air Force base with my brother who drove me here. I was getting off the couch at my brother’s house and ended up loosing my balance and twisting my right foot pretty badly, then heard a snap and immeduately my foot swelled ul. Just had an X-Ray, now awaiting to see MD for results. ER is packed, so it might be awhile before I find out how bad the injury is. I pray it is not broken! Stand by for more news tommorrow.
Bad Right Foot Above
Okay…Update …The x-ray indicated a bad break with multiple fractures where the foot bones and nerves meet. Doc said worst place I could have a break in my foot. Will be seeing Ortho Surgeon in AM for medical course of action. More to follow later.
YIKES! Fingers crossed!

That looks really painful. Hope it’s not broken — and that it heals really quickly.

AAAARRRRGGGHJHH!! Just what you didn’t need, Gary. Is this the different leg from the one that is already giving you trouble?

Yes. It’s my right one. The left has the knee replacement and revision and the squamous cancer cell removals. However, being the right foot, not sure how I am going to drive to Orlando on Sun and then leave with Beau for Las Vagas for 5 days starting next Mon. Have a non-refundable air ticket and complementary hotel nights at the Venetian that will expire and can’t be extended. Time will tell after my appt with Ortho this AM what I plan to do?

Very tough. I’d have thought even you would have trouble driving. X

Still driving to Orlando on Sun and off to Vegas on Mon. Doc said just travel lightly without undue presure to foot. Will continue to wear cast and get reevaluated upon my return to Tampa at end of the month.
