So i went to see the doctor today. I have a small break in a bone behind my big toe. So that is actually really good news. It is not a weight bearing point of my foot so there is nothing that really needs to be done. I will have more pain in that part of my foot now but i can rest easier knowing that i am not causing more problems.
Here is the deal, my bone is broken and it’s great
Illness, sorrow, and despair while trusting God and asking Him why
I am frustrated because i cant see the doctor til tomorrow. My biggest fear right now is that i will have to have surgery to pin the toe. I seem to know when something is wrong that requires surgeries and i have that feeling right now. How many emotional beatings can i take? I feel so beaten down right now both physically and mentally.

Early morning update on music, healing, and uncertainty
I am wide awake at 2-ish in the am and I am relaxing to some random Billboard top 100 hits from the 80s-today on my iPod. Listening to music is a great way to clear my thoughts. So on that note here is how my foot is doing…….

BUT I know that God is able to do it and I am waiting on Him. 2) I will have surgery and the doctor will put screws and/or a rod into the ankle to help stabilize it. Continue Reading…
A long road with my Lord through a valley of despair
So….. I went to the doctor today. Lets just say that everyone there was surprised to see me today. I had an appointment on tuesday and upon leaving then everything was looking great. Today is a new day indeed. After they were over the shock that my foot was moving the doctor tried to figure out what was happening to my foot. the first x-ray showed that everything looked great. Well that was a bit puzzling since I knew that my foot was moving. Next we did a different x-ray called a “stress x-ray” (from the hame you can infer that it is a tid bit painful) which was able to show that the fusion has indeed failed. Continue Reading…
