LAQUITA, I'm sorry for what you have to endure. I hope that after the healing is finished, you will be feel that it was worth it. I broke both of my legs about 15 years ago, and for 6 weeks I was mobility challenged. It was enlightening to realize how it felt to not have the use of my legs. It is so easy to not think about a thing like the ability to walk... until you can't. From my perspective, seeing the world through the eyes of someone in a wheelchair helped to make me a kinder person. My heart goes out to anybody with a disability. Just remember, as you are recovering, that the end result should give you back the use of your feet. And have fun quilting while you tough it out! People like us are blessed with the hours of pleasure needlework brings. I made three afghans while my legs were broken, and it helped to distract me from feeling melancholy. Keep us posted as your condition improves.
