Rolling about town

As most of you know, Judy had foot surgery on her left foot. She was a sport about it and got this very stylish "Roll-About" to get around. Several people said she had a Libby mobile, because Libby Ames had one a while back. She was not allowed to put any weight on the foot for six weeks. She has been on this contraption for that amount of time and back at work for the last four weeks. She is shedding the scooter for an upbeat pair of crutches. She is going to physical therapy twice a week, starting a couple days ago. She is doing her exercises and is now putting 25% weight on it. What was done was to add two long screws to fuse the leg bone to the an ankle bone because of arthritis, shave some bone off her big toe because of a big bump and add that to a metatarsal to straighten the foot, rebuild the arch and align and lower the big toe and finally lengthen the akilies tendon. She had five small incisions that were stapled shut - no stitches. The big boot was put on after surgery over the dressings and was to remain on until a follow up appointment two weeks later. She is now wearing a fancy post-op shoe. She has followed everything she was asked to do by the doctor. A couple weeks of crutches and then nothing. Way to go, Judy.
