I made a little trip to the corner shop this morning. I still can't get any substantial footwear on and was wearing a pair of summer canvas deck shoes,not ideal for October in these parts. The foot is still being very tardy in the recover mode but I am getting there. When I do get what passes for fit with me nowadays I think another ankle support is the way to go. I already wear one on my right ankle which was left weak by a bout of osteomyelitis in my early teens. With my lumber support and two ankle supports I will look a walking accident but if it gets me around that's fine. At least I am able stand and cook without much discomfort for longer so some pleasure there. Time to grab a coffee and catch up with you motley crew.
