Ankle Surgery

After 6 months of ankle issues it was determined I had Os Trigonum syndrome (see http://www.foothealthfacts.org/footankleinfo/os_trigonum_syndrome.htm).  In mid-October I opted for surgery to remove the bone.  The surgery was relatively minor, but left me off my foot for over 2 weeks. Its never easy to immobilize a parent with 4 young children. Sorry Erin!

I now have a walking boot but am very grateful to be done with crutches.

There were many close calls, but the kids never smashed into my sensitive ankle.  William referred to it as my "robot foot" when I wore the walking boot.

The boys enjoyed climbing on my walker.

I enjoyed some quality quiet time with the kids.
