This past week has been a rough and great week all at the same time. The surgery went well but started out pain free, then went painful, than to tolerable. I have the most wonderful fiance! He carried me up the flight of stairs to my apartment after sugery! After my 30 hour nerve block wore off, I could no longer tolerate the pain meds. I ended up in the hospital for fluids. Thank goodness for the many wonderful friends, my mom, and my fiance that my life has been blessed with I was given blessings and ice cream. I was able to finally eat food and be relieved of pain. Then mom and I rented a wheel chair and went shopping! Friday I got my stitches out and had a cast put on! Now I can walk on my own, well mostly. I still have to use one crutch due to my ankle still being extremely tender and sore. They cut a lot more than I thought they would. I have now been offical branded with my own initial "L". So now I wear a cast for 6 weeks and then I upgrade to a walking boot for 4-6 weeks and then i'm free to walk on my own!
