Fell and broke my foot! And surgery next week!

OMG! So, my daughters are here on vacation and I set up a mini vacation for us to do things and have fun. This past Thursday evening we were in Austin, TX, and going to be on a Segway tour. We parked and walked 5 blocks to the meeting spot. About 100 feet from the spot, there was a dip in the sidewalk I didn't see and rolled my right ankle and landed my weight in my right foot. I felt it snap and just cried. I was so excited to go on the Segway tour, but instead I wound up at the hospital with a broken foot! I got a huge splint and now have to wait until Friday to see an orthopedic doctor. Monday I see my surgeon for preop and Wednesday I have my bypass!

I have the worst luck!

I'm very depressed and still in disbelief that this happened.

Sorry! I needed to vent!

I'm doing ok. I will find out at my next orthopedic appointment if I need surgery on my foot. I'm almost feeling back to normal 12 days post op. I have my surgery follow up later today and get my staples out. Yay!
Overall, I'm hanging in there and can't wait to be able to go on my walks again!

So they let you have surgery anyway?

I broke my lateral tibial plateau right before my sleeve surgery and it sat me back 3 months. I was so bummed. I am now 1 and 1/2 years out and down to 113lbs. Feeling great
