Post Op Day 5

I went to the doctor's office yesterday for my post-op appointment. It was the first time I got to see my scars and my 'new feet'. First thing I noticed was that my second toes are now longer than my first toes, which I have never had, but I remember this syndrome having a particularly funny name.
When I got to the office a nurse took x rays and then peeled off my dressings to expose my feet. I've been waiting for this moment! Not just because I want to see my wounds, but not having the dressing on was amazingly freeing and felt awesome. I was surprised how much blood was in my dressings, and my baby toe on my left foot (which has caused me the most pain) was still bleeding a bit. The doctor came in and compared x-rays. My 'new feet' seem so much smaller, the bones closer to each other and my pinky toes are not curled around any longer. I got to take some pics before the doctor washed and applied the new dressings. After the appointment we pigged out on hamburgers and french fries, Chris picked up my wheel chair for me and we spent another night with my awakening every few hours, crying in pain and having to take more medication. I have a loot I bring to and from the livingroom to the bedroom, which includes my phone, laptop, heating pad, pain meds, water, tissues and the 4-5 pillows I stack to elevate my feet. If I try to stand I get intense pain in both of my pinky toes, and it makes me wonder how long it will be until I can walk normally again.

My left pinky toe looked pretty bad, I started to realize why most of my pain is consecrated to it.
