The return of the foot
I went to get my stitches out this morning after my houseguest left and I told my doctor that I liked him a whole lot better before this whole surgery thing. He smiled thinly in response. Then he began to contort my toe like it had not just had surgery, been stitched back together, and been stuffed in a corsetted bandage that had basically caused my flesh to dissolve. He said do this exercise three times a day. I smiled thinly while I stared him down. He said your foot is inflexible right now from the surgery where it is normally very flexible – being why you got into this problem to begin with – and I said well a nurse in my Pilates class told me it was because my feet are inflexible that I got this way – and he said, that’s why she’s a nurse.
