Hi @keats88 and welcome to the community ๐
I had to look up what an ilizarov frame was, it looks quite restricting! Do you have someone at home that can help support you with moving around and everyday life?

Ooh ouch! That's great that you're not in pain and managing so well. I bet there's an amazing story to be told!
Without being too nosey tell us more, I agree with Rachel, there's more, there's more, and we like stories, doesn't have to be the truth, you can make one up if you prefer
basically fell off a ladder ,,20 feet up and nearly lost my foot ,,, my surgeon has done a great job just for me to still have it ,,, after a year I can see some light at end of the tunnel !!
hey @vikki66 jow are you?? Scottish also ??
haha how even!!๐
how times have changed when i was a 10 year old with flat feet a popular operation was to have an inch of shin bone removed from each leg and grafted to the ankle legs and feet in plaster casts for 6 months wood and rubber rockers so you could walk playing football was fun tho being on the farm not so good keeping clean
@michael57 times have changed mate ,, was looking at an amputation 20 years ago!!
Dam, lucky you didn't land on your head, scary thought
@Razr yip ,, thankful it was only an injury and not more serious mate
wee weegie lol @vikki66 !! Iโm no the poetic type tbh ,, but u being from Glasgow may know the 88 part !! ๐
