Bummer!!

I feeled bummed today. I now know when my surgery will be. It's Thursday June 11. I seriously hope this one works. I am not feelinf very positive about it though if I am honest. The first surgery there was an 80% success rate. The second one was even higher at 90%. This one technically shouldn't even be happening. Dr. B bascially told me that this one is it. There isn't much else that can be done. I agree with that. Short of an total ankle replacement, what else is there. I also know that I will have major arthritis in the coming months and years. Sometimes that can be just as painful as what I'm experiencing now.

I don't want to focus on the negative, but it's hard not to. 3 months in a cast which means basically being bored outta my mind. I guess I'll be able to catch up on my reading, watch movies all day, and sleep a ton. I can also start watching "Days of our Lives" again. I'm sure not much has changed since I watched it faithfully 2 years ago. Not to mention, I'll get to watch every game of my Cleveland Indians. Mmmmm my Ryan Garko(licious). I'll also constantly be on facebook and blogging more. I also get these really great drugs. So I guess there are some positives. One major bummer is no alchohol. It doesn't mix well with Vicodin. Oh well. At least I know when it's happening so I can prepare myself.
