10 More Days

My ankle seems to get worse every day.  I'm thinking that it's all in my mind and that it's been this painful all along but that I just didn't let myself acknowledge it because it wouldn't do any good to dwell on it or even think about it.

I wonder how it will look once my recovery is complete.  I know there will be a nice, neat scar running down the front of my ankle and onto the top of my foot, but what shape will my ankle have?  I've thought that the bulging sides of my ankle were due to swelling, but something the doctor said made me think otherwise.


Here are my ankles side by side.  It will be interesting to compare before and after photos and also to have a record of how the whole thing progresses.
