Worried about my op

I have cmt type five, born with it. Had the normal ankle ops as a youngster. Now I am having hammer toe surgery in 3 days and I'm a bit concerned.

Having to known anyone who has this type of surgery before, I need few questions answered. Number 1 my left ankle is already bent and won't lift up due to the cmt op not working, is there a chance that it will be lifted so that it will me walk? As I walk over my feet now.

Thankyou
