At least he is not losing his toes! He'...Diane,<br />At least he is not losing his toes! He'll need them for balance. The good news is you shouldn't have to fight for rehab after the surgery... it's expected.<br /><br />As far as taking the knuckle out and fusing the bone...I've had that done before with a thumb and a couple of fingers. Yes there is loss of motion, but they also behave like normal afterwards within the new range of motion. Plus there is no pain after it heals.<br /><br />Hold onto your panties. It's going to be a bust couple of weeks. Bob may just be able to walk with his hemi after all. Remember to have faith, rest, and breathe.J.L.

I a...Well, glad to hear you are an x-ray tech, too! I am very accomplished at that too now. So glad to hear that the surgery is supposed to be fairly simple. Gosh, wish I would have found your doctor before we had the surgery last summer to amputate Kaj's toes. Maybe it would have worked for him. But giving you lots of healing love! It will be a busy few weeks! But isn't it always! :)DebbieLhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09134696236938829681noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4683912290300109544.post-50247383544929404762013-06-23T11:40:07.362-04:002013-06-23T11:40:07.362-04:00Make sure to eat your Wheaties!
