Plantar Fasciotomy

We drove to San Francisco yesterday to spend the night for Christina’s surgery Tuesday AM. We didn’t go to Fisherman’s Wharf or Pier 39 but we did enjoy a very tasty dinner at Asqew Grill on California Street.

The surgery went well, we are home, Christina is resting. Pictures were taken of the actual surgery. Christina will post these at a later date. Mom and Dad had a difficult time viewing these pictures

Hey there!

I’m just about ready for the second surgery (right foot this time) and do I have some news. I may just have some pics from the actual surgery to post afterward. That’ll be neat for you and me.

I’m headed to San Francisco tomorrow afternoon. I think I might just pay the seals hanging out at Fisherman’s Wharf a visit. For now I still have a few things to do so I better get to it. I’m looking forward to having the surgery and getting into recovery. It’s time for these feet to heal!

Well it’s been three months since my first surgery. It’s healing well – but still healing. I saw my doctor Thursday and he could push around on my heal area and it didn’t hurt. That is GOOD news.

Doing my stretches has really made a difference. I do some as soon as I wake up before I step out of bed and it really helps with that initial pain.

Everything I do for my left foot for recovery I’ve been doing for my right foot so it should be in better condition for surgery. I’m really hoping that my right foot has a better healing process. I think it helps that I have a better idea of what’s coming and what I can and can’t do. I’m sensitive to pain and injury so we’re going to baby my right foot recovery.

So I’m going to do my best not to trip with crutches and attempt to do some things too soon. Keeping my foot elevated after surgery is very important and as hard as it is to basically lay down for a week I’m certainly going to do it because I want to be as good as I possibly can be for Christmas.

I’m leaving Monday early afternoon for San Francisco for the surgery that takes place bright and early Tuesday morning. My mom will post updates on how my recovery is going because I won’t be online for a little while. BUT I hope you’ll post comments because my mom does read them to me.
