As noted in a previous post, I had surgery yesterday to replace the first metatarsal in my right foot.
As far as Im aware, it all went good; I didnt get to talk to the surgeon but the nurse didnt give me dirty looks on the way out which is a good sign that I behaved myself.
The nerve block wore off earlier so the pain is increasing. I just took some medication and the youngest (my current nurse) has just dropped off for his nap so Im going to do the same.




In that first picture, it appears at first glance that you are hooked up to some sort of monitoring devices. Kinda scary. Then I realized it’s just IPOD cords-n-stuff. Then I thought, wow, what’s that thing there, sucking your will to live? And I realize it’s just your kid. I really need to give these pictures more than a casual glance.
