Originally Posted By amazedncal2 That is great news, at least the part that the fracture is healing well. OUCH, about the torn ligament. I too will be keeping you in my thoughts for a speedy end to your recovery.

Originally Posted By murfsmom STIL- thanks for the hugs, i'm doing what the dr says, i've had a torn ligament before from dance class years ago, so i know what to expect from it, as for shoes, well the dr said it was a good thing i was wearing flip flops that day because the shoe would have constricted my foot, it might have gone one way and me the other. i'm not a shoe person anyway unless it's cold or i'm going to church or something, in fact my family has always called me"the irish hillbilly" there i've said it for the world to see, i figured a couple people knew that already and it would get out anyway so i might as well just throw it out there !! LOL!!!

Originally Posted By Tinkeroon I am sooooo happy to hear that the foot is healing up well! Okay, the torn ligament isn't so good but knowing is half the battle. Just follow doctor's advice and hopefully by July it will be a thing of the past. FINALLY!! davewasbaloo: I hope you're a good dancer. I have it on good authority she has a little twinkle to her toes. And we don't want anyone stepping on her FEET! D
