So my Dad and brother Isaac went to the doctor before we headed to vacation and came to a conclusion with the doctor they needed surgery!
Isaac's Story:
Isaac has been playing sports forever he loves them especially basketball, his all time favorite! This last school year he was in a lot of pain playing any sport he did! We thought he had turf toe! He went to the doctor the same day my Dad did and they did an MRI and said he had a break that healed wrong in his big toe on the right foot, he broke his toe in football his freshman year!
Isaac's friends and brought him cookies the day of his surgery! They got pretty creative!
Isaac the day after surgery! Still a little loopy! Chilling with Bay and his club foot!
All wrapped up!
Incision!
Bruising and swelling 3 days after!
Dad's Story:
My Dad over the last year was having troubles with his foot and ankle! As time progressed he started to walk on the inside of his foot and as more time progressed he started to walk on his ankle basically! The doctor had said he had crushed his ankle bone and there were some tendons that needed to be repaired due to that fact he was walking on his foot the wrong way for so long! So he had gone in for reconstructive surgery on July 31st! He was in a wheelchair for 2 months and has been in a boot for a 1 1/2 months! It has been challenging and he has been awesome about it! He finally got his boot off today and we are just hoping everything continues to go well! There are a lot more details to his story but since I have procrastinated for so long I don't remember them all!
Grandpa finally got to come home 3 days later and all he wanted to do was snuggle with Baylee! Nap time!
A month after surgery when the cast was finally able to come off!
Incision across the ankle and heel of the right foot!
Looking at the heel of his foot from behind! As if he were standing up!
The incision on the inside of his leg!
My Dad has always claimed he doesn't get tattoo's he gets scars! He just added 3 beautiful scars to his collection!
So kinda weird they got surgery on the same day and by the same doctor! Isaac wasn't able to play football but he is playing basketball! He was hoping he would be better faster than he was! But he is learning patience and work by doing all the exercises he needs to to get back to no pain while running and pushing off of his toe!
