Blown off course

Now what? I could hardly make it through PT today, my ankle was screaming. My therapist sent me up to the 5th floor for an Xray. I don't know yet what it showed. I have been to the Xray department so many times I know the names of all the technicians. One of them puts an extra thick pillow down because he remembers how painful that cold, hard table is for me. Bones crashing into steel...

It's so frustrating! You think you're moving along and making great strides and boom! It's not a bomb, but it might as well be. Another, frickin' health problem. If it's not the foot, its the ankle, or the knee, or the arm, or the prosthetic...IT'S ALWAYS SOMETHING. It's enough to give you PTSD.

Did you get the results yet? I hope it's nothing major.

You can do this...you are stronger than most. It has to be frustrating, but it will work itself out.
