Thanks Tom. Cheech's wife just got my stupid TED sock back on and pulled my boot off to ice ankle and check it. All good yet, no visable swelling or discharge of any kind on bandage wrap yet. 👍

We were laughing again this morn. While i was being wheeled down to surgery, they kept saying well get you back to your family soon. When i woke up, same thing. We'll be back to your room in just a minute so you'll be back with your family. Thats odd, just Cheech. I don't have family here.  As we drove out of the hospital, Cheech says i think they think we are a couple. I said a couple what? He said a couple gay old dudes😁  I said well maybe thats why the kept reffuring to you as family. He said when Dr popped in to tell him i did fine and would be back in a few, Cheech was on phone, doc said oh didn't mean to interupt you call. He said thats ok, i was just telling my wife Steve was out of surgery fine. He said docs looked startled and then said ahh and smiled. Cheech said he was a whole lot more friendly then.😁

When they were prepping me they were asking me questions and Cheech about past things etc. Kathy, (Cheechs wife) said well you two been best friends since 1972 and know everything about each other. Probably thought just an old couple😁   we all got a laugh.

Hot damn, just got back from Dr. Got unwrapped cleaned stiches out. Still have a slight discharge where my bottom screw pushing out kinda thru skin was thin and infected. Got to go back in 2 weeks to make sure it heals all the way and infection still gone. I get to transion back to reg shoes now, with exception to rough ground or chance of bumping insicion.
He even got one extra (long) screw out. Said it was right there and didn't have any bone growth over it, so out it came. Looks a lot lighter with only one screw left😁

Boy you can sure see where my 2 bones above the breaks have fused together, wierd. He said probably another month and the holes should fill in.

Glad it's going well!

Thanks Tom. So far this morn i'm happier than a tick at a hairy dog show😁  The ankle muscle stiffness and ankle discomfort is allmost all gone.

Glad you are on the mend! It isn't as quick as it used to be.

Sammons...sounds like you had your share of problems... Glad your doing better...

Thanks Sixball. You ain't a kidding about longer to heal. Everything seems to be healing good except slow over the rotten spot of skin over where lower screw was. This morn just a tiny discharge the size of a sharpie marker dot, and now looking more like a propper scab👍  I'll be so glad to be done with this morning doctoring behind me.

Thanks Ed. Been a trying time. At least i didn't have to go thru the pain you did.
How is your knee doing now? Better i hope!    Are you going to have the other one done? Tell Bonnie hey🙂
