Friday 24th May

It’s exactly one week since I had the second operation. I’m off to the surgery to see my wonderful practice nurse for a clean-up and re-dressing. The dent on the top of foot doesn’t shock me so much today, and it is quite painfree having all the gauze, lint, bandages, compression stocking removed and reapplied.

I hobble out clutching a party sized box of strong painkillers; an absolute necessity first thing in the morning, when I lower my foot to the  floor, and attempt to begin my day with a spring in my step!
