I haven't blogged in a bit. My apologies. I figured if I wrote everyday about my chronicles it would get a bit boring. I pretty much did the same thing, every day, before my post-op appointment. I slept, ate, felt nauseous, slept more, watched a lot of tv and movies. It was a pretty depressing ten days. No one really visited me or called. Unless you count Annie, Chris, and Garrett (by phone).
I went to my post-op appointment on the 24th where I hoped I would be able to be put in a walking cast...but noooo. Instead, the doc inspects my stitches and says put a cast on. I was like WHAT!? So I had a short cast put on my foot, with a toe plate for no movement. I have to wear this stupid thing for 4 weeks.
I also booked my first professional acting gig in Aspen about the mid to the end of January. I'm a little worried though that my foot won't be ready by then. It means I have to be diligent with my physical therapy and work at home with exercises. I was told not to flex or move my toes while in this cast so I'm doing pretty well with that too. Everyone that reads this please send positive vibes so I heal right. This process has been harder than I thought. My patience and strength has certainly been tested.
On an awesome note: I have guns! Yes, I have arm muscles that rival Mrs. Obama's. All because of crutches. The downside of crutches: my right butt cheek is far superior than the left. :( I'm pretty sure every time I use my crutches I get a workout!
