Happy Monday, Wake! It's sort of a miserable Monday (hey, that's a theme! LOL) for me with a badly fractured little toe (happened last night).

fuckin' OUCH! agree, re: feet are patient zero for mobility issues and should be treated with love. i'm blessed with good knees.

I was walking past an amplifier (my housemates are musicians) sitting on the floor next to a cupboard and I guess my foot hit into it and it broke my little pinky toe so badly that it was pointing at a 45 degree angle away from my foot. Went to the ER and they had to reset it twice. And the break seems unstable, so I may even need surgery (but hopefully not). For now, I'm supposed to avoid putting weight on it , which complicates my daily life. Have crutches, I crawl, and hop. Usually people say that doctors don't do anything for broken toes, but it totally depends on the severity of the break. And to me, feet are very important - they affect your whole body and the way you walk. To be able to walk far and pain-free is a gift I will never take for granted.
