Update on my foot injury

Okay, do not like to share any bad news, we all have had enough. I had an MRI on Thursday to see if more damage was done. I have 4 broken bones in my foot, ligament damage, tendons seriously injured, and of course, a very wicked ankle sprain. How great a fall!

So...my lesson, steps will grab you and it can hurt SO bad. I will be in a boot for ten weeks. But no surgery as long as all heals fine, thank goodness. They took me off crutches, because the doctor said they were too dangerous for me!

Just an update. Love to all. Stay safe. Love, Kelly

Dang girl you sure did it good didn’t you. Thank God you don’t need surgery hopefully. They’re serious about those crutches though. I had 2 foot surgeries in 2000 for planters fasciitis and was on crutches for 12 weeks each and they suck.

You take care of yourself cause I can’t get out there to take care of you.😊😋.

Did you see my post yesterday that they finally approved my power chair so I’d hate to have to ride it to you and take care of you.😊😀🤭.

But no kidding sis take care of yourself And don’t forget to let me know how you’re doing.

Love ya sis.🥰🥰.

Ouch, 10 weeks will fly by, did they give you anything for the pain? Take care and no weight bearing, big hug, Blessings Jimeka 🤗

Nothing for pain. They offered it, but I had just stopped all opiates because I need Klonopin for tremors and anxiety. Have tried baclofen, but get bad reaction to it, so one must now choose either suffer with ms pain and now this injury or have tremor relief!

You will continue to be in my prayers. I stopped using a cane because I hit myself in the head with it 1 time

Oh no.!! Worse than anything I have ever suffered! Keep that foot up. Guess that’s why he took crutches away. May God grant give you patience and peace and a quick recovery.

Thank you so much. I am keeping it elevated still, sometimes with ice. I will try to post a picture of it. Although it is pretty gruesome. All colors. Love.

I guess we could congratulate you on being thorough! Poor girl! Please be very careful, and I’ll keep you in prayer.

Just wait...I posted a pic. It shows how bad it looks now, more than 2 weeks after, you cannot imagine how awful it looked right after.

Please allow plenty of time for your foot to heal, Amore55 because it sounds like there was a lot of damage done. I, too, broke my foot in 2017, but with lots of time, I was able to recover... :-D
