Mums had her op....
I posted a few days ago that my MIL had been admitted to hospital following a podiatry appointment.
After seeing consultants, mum was given 2 options. One was basically stay as you are and get progressivly worse until you die a dreadfully painful death ( in a relatively short time) or have the foot amputated and although its not going to be easy to adjust and a long recovery period, and hopefully the rest of yr day will be relatively painfree. Not much of a choice.
We were certain shed choose not to have surgery so were very surprised when arriving at the hospital yesterday lunchtime to find her in pretty good spirits telling us shes talked with the doc and she was having surgery tomorrow!! (today)
Hubs and his sister stayed with her this morning and came home when she went into surgery. We've just had a call to say shes had her op and is heading back to the ward.
They are heading back up there now.
