Pain 11-13-16

Hello everyone. I wanted to give you all an update on how I am doing!

So since I am out here in California I decided to go to northern Cali to visit one of my best friends who moved out here. My mother and I drove up and she actually flew back home for a few days to help out back there. I stayed with her in her apartment. We arrived there on the 11th and we were going back to our hotel in SoCal on the 16th. When we got to her place I went a little bit too much too fast... It was only one week after surgery on my left foot and I did a little too much walking around and it caused so much swelling and pain. I completely regret doing that. There was a ton of bruising on that foot and made my foot extremely painful to the touch.

I took my first shower on the 14th. This was the day I started turning my left foot and stopped turning my right foot 2 times a day. The shower was amazing!! I sat in the shower and got both feet wet. It felt so wonderful. It was really crazy and kind of gross but the amount of skin that I scrapped off of my feet was ridiculous. I couldn't get them wet and just using a washcloth every so often to wipe them down didn't help much with getting dead skin off. Other than that I was doing well. I was in pain but the pain pills helped a lot. I also iced and raised my feet every single night which helped tremendously.

My next doctors appointment is on 11-19-16 where he will check on my feet and take x-rays!
