July 28 '10 - October 16 '10

july 28 - got the metal plate taken out of my foot. that was fun.

after that - on crutches for about two weeks. difficult to walk on two broken feet. :/

august to now - feet are trying to heal. in physical therapy. feet don't seem to be getting better too quickly though. right foot has pain and the toes are bruised around the joints. left ankle is still hurting. left foot is still hurting. life sucks. -.-

future - feet will be better? i hope. i get to graduate with no p.e. credits, yay. my school requires 2 years of p.e. to graduate. yay doctors notes.

February '10 - July 26 '10

sometime between february third and may: go to the doctor (AGAIN), foot still hurting. doctor says we can take the plate out, i think about it, probably a good idea. but when? busy summer. so we hold off.

june: go to germany for 3 weeks, end up spraining left ankle and right ankle within 4 days of each other there. and still have to walk on them. and right foot is very unhappy with this. pain. pain. pain.

july: come back from germany. go to colorado, santa cruz, UOP Music Camp.

after colorado but before santa cruz and UOP: go to dr, schedule surgery to get metal plate out: July 28th.

july 20 (? last Wednesday): left foot (not ankle, foot) starts swelling and hurting really bad - after a few days i can't walk on it. currently attempting crutches.

today (july 26): got an xray of my left foot - guess what?! it looks like it's fractured! now how the hell did i do that?!?!? :( i have no memory of falling or cracking my foot but there is definitely something there. not confirmed yet. but probable. :'( and surgery on my other foot in two days... how am i supposed to walk?

December 17 '09 - February 3 '10

december 17th: got cast off. got walking boot on. seemed ok. hurt though. duh.

a month or so later: go back to doctor. still hurts. doctor says that's normal. i'm like ok...

after that: go back to doc again. he says i can walk in normal shoes again. yay?

recently (last 3 weeks): foot hurts. BAD. 2nd and 3rd toe joints as well as the metatarsals are killing me. can barely walk. limping.

yesterday (2/2/10): go to doctor. he doesn't know why it's hurting. says i should go on crutches to try and calm it down. he is completely baffled. not good.

today: first day back on crutches. i remember now how much i hate them. we will see if they actually help anything.
