Visited the doctor today to check on the progress following surgery, and everything is looking good. My foot is still pretty bruised, but the swelling is down and the doctor was able to remove the stitches today. I was placed in a new cast (black) for the next 3-4 weeks, but hopefully if things continue to improve quickly, I can get into a boot next and maybe start physical therapy to build some strength back into my foot. I'm still not expected to return to work until November, but I am hopeful that once I am allowed to use my foot again, I will be able to cut some time and get back to school a bit sooner.
As you can see, nobody has signed my cast yet, so if you want to be the first, you'll have to come over and say hello! It's been pretty boring sitting in bed for the past 2 weeks, but I am trying very hard to stay patient and follow the doctor's orders. I can't wait to be up and about again! I know that I will not be there for the start of school, so everyone have fun and I can't wait to see you when I return!!
Mr. Linnet
