My operation is over, all went well

Will not need crutches or any aids.
Will be going home soon. 🙂

There was a slight setback.
When I first put weight on my foot the wound split open and there was copious blood spilling out.
So the wound was redressed and I had to wait another hour for the wound to heal more, reducing the chance of splitting open.
Finally released at 6pm with a stipulation that I had to have someone with me overnight in case of complications.
This was relayed to me an hour before the operation. I was on the bed awaiting my turn when told this.
So I rang my friend and asked if I could stay overnight at his place. Thankfully he and his wife agreed and I am currently in the spare bedroom. It is 10.30pm.
I hope the wound does not bleed overnight and destroy the bed linen.

@whowasthatmaskedman Yes, I am being cautious. The wound is so much better today. Will not be going for a run anytime soon.🙂
@Gusman WTF! Why can’t you use crutches and a support so that you don’t have to step on it? 😨

@Vivaci All good now. The extra 24 hours has stabilised the would and I can walk on it okay.
When the would split it was one hour after the operation.
😱 Geez….my heart just cringed. I’m glad you’re feeling better. Kindly avoid putting pressure on that foot till it heals man 🤨@Gusman

@Vivaci I have a week's supply of DVD's. I will now be laying back for a few days with my foot elevated. A life of leisure 🙂
@Gusman That is rare in the book of Gus! 😅 Good!
