I'm walking around the house in my big, winter, bother boots with my cane. I have to go for eye tests and see my ophthalmologist tomorrow. I broke my toe about 3 1/2 weeks ago and I want to know if the boots make the toe hurt. A week ago on Friday I tried because I wanted to go to a friend's surprise birthday party. I walked about 5 metres and the toe started to hurt. Needless to say, I missed the party. The toe hurt for a couple of days.
I will be taking a taxi to see the doctor. That assumes that the toe doesn't hurt later. Right now, it seems to be okay in the boots.
It has been about 20 years since I owned a pair of winter boots. In fact boots of any kind. I am not a fan of winter. So if I have to go out, then it is from the door to the car. I also have stopped wearing sox for more then ten years now. I can't stand anything at all touching the graft on my wound. not even a blanket. I am absolutely paranoid when it come to my graft. That graft saved my leg. The first time on day five after the surgery, I took my first step without pain, and I grabbed my surgeon with a big hug and started to cry. She understood without saying a word.
