I also have to see my Foot Dr. on Monday, I think it's gonna end up in a hard cast, very pain full again, so I guess they didn't do the job right the first time so six weeks wasted???
Oh dear, that sounds so discouraging. It must be difficult to keep an upbeat attitude when you are facing all of these medical issues. I suppose sometimes we just have to take one day at a time. And practice the Serenity Prayer:
God grant me the serenity
to accept the things I cannot change,
the courage to change the things I can,
and the wisdom to know the difference.
Buddy's Mom, we are here to give you moral support, whenever you need it. Don't give up on yourself. Maybe this isn't the best time for you to really focus on losing a lot of weight. So take baby steps and focus on just living as healthy as you can. Even if it is just drinking water, and smiling, and checking in with us here and allowing us to see that things could be a lot worse.
