word from the post-op room

in the best news of the week, i got my cast off 2 days ago. the leg feels great now that its not bound in an unnatural position anymore. the doc took a few photos during the surgery. they're pretty gruesome, fyi: here's one before the fix (blurry), and one after the fix. it looks like something from a sam rami movie.

the doctors are deliriously happy about the procedure. apparently they didn't find a single case on record for the repair of the posterior tibial tendon and the flexor digitorous (?) tendon rupture. they're going to publish a paper on it... it's bound to be a scorcher.
