Medical Update--The Latest On Sandi's Feet

Sandi had another therapy appointment yesterday afternoon with the physical therapist and the news was not good at all. The therapist now believes Sandi has the exact same injury in her left foot and leg as she does in her right. Apparently the tendon on the left side is also now trying to pull away from the bone in her leg. While that left foot is not booted as of yet, the therapist believes that it needs to be. How she will walk at all around here with boots on both feet I have no idea.

The therapist was very blunt in his assessment yesterday and thinks it will be months before she can return to work. Of course he does not have the final say on any of this as that is up to the doctor. Her next appoint with the foot doctor is November 30^th when he will reevaluate her status.

Sandi was very upset and depressed about all this when she came back home yesterday. I kept trying to point out that a year ago she was coming off knee surgery and about to get a terminal cancer diagnosis so things could easily be worse. Been there and done that. So, as bad as this is, at least this year it is not cancer and she is home for Thanksgiving.

In the meantime, while watching TV and listening to me yell at football teams and curse politicians and news readers, she has been making things like crazy. That means she has been able to add some new product to her store on iOffer at: http://www.ioffer.com/selling/sanditipple
 

She does do special orders by request and has other things not shown on the site. So, if you don’t see what you are looking for ask here or contact her through her crafting projects blog at:

The pictures come from earlier this week when I finally convinced her she looked good and to let me take one so others could see.  Considering where she was a year ago and where she is now, I think she looks fantastic.
