Sara's Foot


This is what Sara's leg and foot look like 4 weeks after surgery. The picture is a little blurry because it is from my phone, but you can see the pins on the right side and the dark black lines are dried blood from the incisions.

I know this looks a little gory, but her foot actually looks normal. I wish I had taken a picture of her foot before surgery so that everyone else could see the difference.

She is now in a short-leg cast that is black with a pink spiral stripe going down to her toes like a candy cane. It will still be a couple of days before she can walk by herself because her leg muscles are weak and she is unsure of her abilities. She is progressing great and amazes me every day at how well she is recovering.

Darrel only has three weeks left to work before he starts school and he is oh so ready for that day to come.

I just received my temporary OT license and I have a tentative start date of September 14th. I am so excited about my new job and being able to apply all that I have learned so that I can help other people!
