Well, since my last blog, hubby managed to find some underarm crutches online and bought them, they have been a lot easier to use than the elbow crutches I must say. But the weight of the pot/cast still hampered a lot of movement.

This morning I went back to the hospital for an appointment to have a new pot/cast put on and an x-ray done. This pot/case is so much lighter it's ridiculous. And the x-rays looked really good to the doctor. I don't have to go back for four weeks and at that time they will take this pot/cast off to look at the stitches (although, they may have dissolved away by that time), take another x-ray and depending on the results of that x-ray I will either be able to keep the pot/cast off or have a walking one put on...I hope it is one I can take off...if push came to shove I could have mom send the one I have from when I broke my right foot eleven years ago...

Kate, ask about an inflatable cast. You may have to pay, but trust me as the most broken boned person you will ever know, they are sooooooooo much better. I hope you get better soon.

again I pray for you and hope things turn out well

Thanks lady and gentlemen. Kelly! I haven't seen you for ages...inflatable cast, eh? The one they put on yesterday is light and comfortable at least.

Glad your new crutches are more comfortable and like the others have already said get well soon

Glad you're comfortable now as you can be. Good that you're healing well.

Hope you recover fast and be better than ever

Do you think the cast will fit from 11 years ago? Hope it heals fast and right.

I don't see why it wouldn't fit...my feet are the same size, and while I may have put a bit more weight on, my calves are the same size...that and it fastens with velcro so it is a bit flexible anyway. I'm having to stay at a friend's house today as we are having work done at ours...hubby's over there making sure everything goes well.
