So Fresh and So Clean

Ahhh! Stitches out and I'm all sorts of happy. Mostly because of the AMAZING shower I was able to take tonight... with both legs in I might add. I love feeling clean! It's pretty much the best feeling in my opinion. So here are a few pictures of, well, me after my first full body
shower in 3 weeks :) and then some of my feet. 3 weeks down, only 5 to go!

I don't think I could have a bigger smile on my face
Im pretty sure all of you are wishing you had as cool as shoes as me. This is what I am wearing currently. Jealous?
Ok so a shot of both of my feet. Im proud to say you can see my bones in my feet and my ankle bone. It's amazing. They have been swollen for who knows how long. Pretty much years. Im glad my toes are not looking like little sausages now.

Here is the incision, scar on my right foot. Its been the most part of my recovery, and why its 8 weeks. Thank you toe! Its pretty long and my foot is oh so dry. I cant wait til I dont have to have it all bandaged up so it can get some air.






And this is how I be gettin' around these days. I have become PRO at the wheelchair and Semi- Pro at the crutches. Its an adjustment for both but I'm glad Im getting the hang of it.

Kates! your toes are so cute! I think when this is all done we need to go get a pedicure! Your feet look so GREAT! I am so happy that you are getting the hang of the crutches. I think I would just crawl everywhere because crutches are so hard... We need to seriously get together and talk. I will call you k:) Love ya!

I can't believe you had to wait 3 weeks for a full shower. Ahhh... that would be hard!! And your toes are so darn cute! If you did that yourself you may just have to give me a pedicure one of these days. :) And yout toes and feet do look good. You can tell the swelling is going down. Wahoo! I'm sure it's so nice to see some improvement after having to go through everything you've been through. And way to stay happy despite the hard time! You rock!! I know I was going to tell you something else but my mind has escaped me. Oh well. Hey have you got your papa wheely down in your chair yet? :) Call me if you need me!!!

Yeah for not-swollen feet! I'm so excited for how much more comfortable you'll be.

Are there actually stitches on your foot? I can't even tell because of how awesome your little toes look!
