Default The foot surgery date is...

August 6th!

Four weeks from today ... ugh ... I shudder to think of it ...

The doctor called today to tell me the details....totally immobile for 2-3 weeks (if you try to walk on it, it will only delay the recovery) OKAY OKAY .. I promise: I WILL NOT TRY TO WALK ON IT ... I told the nurse "I NEED A FAST RECOVERY, THEREFORE I WILL DO WHATEVER IT TAKES..."

8-10 weeks in a cast ...

The *only* thing that is getting me through is imagining running that March 1, 2009 marathon PAIN-FREE!!! OMG, that would be so so wonderful!

Betty

I can't even imagine the combination of emotions you are feeling right now. I'm really excited about you being able to run pain free; that is going to feel like... flying. Do you have to stop running until surgery?

Hi,
Just had a major surgery myself...and found some comfort in listening to the guided imagery and possitive affirmations of Belleruth Naprostek. You can down load it from healthjourneys.com I highly recommend it! It helped me through BRAIN surgery! I was scared to but all went well and I'm recovering nicely. check it out!
