Questions for Callaway

[Alex179]

I just fixed it so guests can't edit other guest's posts, since I see that a post made by a former member was edited and I'm pretty sure he didn't edit it himself.

Very intense  

If members don't get to do that, why should guests?

Dude you do realise those guests were all I2 members, right?  

I didn't read most of that shit, but it does not surprise me that it was I2 members goofing around.

I know that your surgery is soon, Callaway, so I wanted to wish you a smooth recovery after it is done. I wanted to say it while you are online and so I have.

Thanks, Renaeden.

 

Yeah you don't deserve this mate, nor the wait

Thanks, Sir Les.  I am a big chicken when it comes to surgery.  I wish I didn't need to have it, but I don't want my ankle to hurt forever either, so I'll do it and get through the recovery.

"a big chicken" does not seem like a well-earned title on your part, Callaway.  I wish you a quick and easy trip in and out of surgery and a speedy recovery.

Thanks, PMS Elle.

I have had surgery before, but not on my ankle.

I recovered prety wel from all of them, but my ankle will have to be non-weight bearing for 4 to 6 weeks at least, depending on what the surgeon finds when he operates.

I plan to get a steerable rolling knee walker, so I hope that helps me not have to use crutches so much.  Unfortunately, my house has lots of stairs and there are several steps just to get from the driveway to the front door.

Surgery?

[Callaway]

Surgery?

Yes, it's scheduled for this Friday and I will probably be lying around with my foot propped up on pillows for a few weeks.  I hope I can return to work when my daughter's school starts back in early January.

[renaeden]

I hope your daughter treats you well while you are off your feet. Your wish is her command!

[Callaway]

She really wants to be helpful so that's good.  She had trouble finding things that are right in front of her, though.

[renaeden]

I do as well and when people get impatient at me it just gets worse! I often wonder why it happens. Maybe it is because I have a hard time processing visual information.

[Callaway]

I think that must be it.

Hope all goes well with the surgery, and that you regain mobility quickly. Could you post a pic of your knee walker? Pretty please? Sounds cool. Even crutches and walking sticks offer great potential for fun. After my knee surgery, my kids discovered that they could no longer give me cheek within about a 1.5 m radius if I had my walking stick handy.   (It also came in useful for snagging objects down from high shelves.)

All the best, Callaway.

Tomorrow?  Yikes!  Good luck, take care, and when you're feeling up to it, let us know how you're doing post-op!

And pics or it didn't happen.

Looking forward to seeing you back online.

Thanks for the good wishes, SleepyDragon.

Here's a picture of the steerable knee walker that I rented:



I have used my cane to reach things, too.

I don't think I will be posting pictures of it, though.

Dang.

But I just meant your foot only.
Not you, your husband and daughter standing outside the front of your house and car.
