Slowly Coming Back

posted on 6th of july, 2009

>My last blog article was back in March talking about how I had major surgery on my foot and I would be taking a long time to recover and I would not be able to do photography during that time. My surgery on my foot was to fix a dislocated Tendon that was completely flat and to remove an extra muscle in the foot. I'm still recovering since I still have a pain in my foot from the surgery and my foot still gets really tight. It took me awhile to learn to walk correctly again by having Physical Therapy and I am glad that I am at the stage of the recovery that I do not need Physical Therapy anymore. Now I am on my own when it comes to the rest of the recovery and that will heal up eventually but I have to watch myself cause some times I agitate the foot.

Now to the photography. I'm slowly coming back...

	Posted by Lifesazoo on July 08, 2009 Thanks again everyone :) Being able to go out and do photography again has been a thrill for me since I was cooped up in an apartment for several months after my surgery. Getting use to doing photography is slowly coming back to me but I know I will get there eventually back to my old self. I'm trying to exercise at least 3 times a week and go for 30 minute walks a day to help with strengthening the muscle in my leg and foot which has been helping me to recover quicker then they expected. The doctor told me the pain in my foot and the numb feeling I have with the nerves will eventually go away but it might take several more months but at least I am recovering to the point of no more physical therapy and I do not have to go back to the doctor again unless I feel like some thing is wrong.
