Toni Posted April 6, 2008 Posted April 6, 2008 hello alesia here.Im going to try to post x-rays of toni's injuries. I took her to the doctors. she had the arm cast removed and now has to exercise it.hopefully she can use the computer soon I a week or so.but still she nees to elevate her leg. she had two plates put in the arm and leg these are to hold the bones in place and hopefully heal together,they are watching out for the round bone in her ankle area with the two srews in it.if it turns all white that means they have to do another surgery and place a fake bone there and fuse it at a 90 degree angle for good. she needs to listen though so far the bone is okay.cross fingers..
Toni Posted April 6, 2008 Author Posted April 6, 2008 close up of the the round bone with screws in it.
Talon Posted April 6, 2008 Posted April 6, 2008 OMG! Poor thing! Give her my wishes for a speedy recovery, and let her know she is missed here on the forum!

Toni Posted July 25, 2008 Author Posted July 25, 2008 Doctor says Im doing better.Starting to walk now with out the walker. Doctor still wants me to use it out in public or in my yard.He has no worries of the public Ive only been out for doc appoitments and couple other times.I dont like people seeing me this way.I have a weird self-image of myself. Anyhoo, the talus bone is dying but this last appoitment it hasnt dyed anymore.Now he has me doing therapy to get my foot walking front ways because it goes side ways.
lovemyGreys Posted July 25, 2008 Posted July 25, 2008 :ohmy: ouch that foot sounds painfull Toni.Yes im afraid i wouldnt fancy going out in public with the walker either Im pleased the Doc is happy with you,keep on recovering x
kittykittykitty Posted July 26, 2008 Posted July 26, 2008 Oh, Toni! I'm so glad you are improving!!!Rehab can be a long, slow process, I know. Courage!:ohmy:
judygram Posted July 27, 2008 Posted July 27, 2008 Thanks for the update Toni, I have been thinking of you and how it is going with rehab, I have never been thru anything like that but I hear it is a long drawn out process that soon will be over with Toni back to 100%, you go girl:)
Guest Posted July 28, 2008 Posted July 28, 2008 Wow Toni, what happened? :ohmy: How could this happen? Anyway, I am glad to also read you are making progress. I hope you will recuperate completely and wish you strength
Toni Posted July 28, 2008 Author Posted July 28, 2008 There's a post on what happened. I dont know how to bring it up.Its under Sad News About Toni..Its under my thing but my son's g/f was able to post.I told her how to let my family here know.
lovemyGreys Posted July 28, 2008 Posted July 28, 2008 Here is the original thread http://www.greyforums.net/forums/newsroom/70031-sad-news-toni-a-forum-member.html
Toni Posted July 28, 2008 Author Posted July 28, 2008 Thanx Tracy.... The good news though is right now its healing.Hope it stays that way and not go the other way.I just can't wait to drive again.The only driving I've been doing is driving myself nuts staying home. I haven't seen a Walmart since March 14th. I use to go every day !... Xrays looked good though so cross fingers hope for the best.
lovemyGreys Posted July 28, 2008 Posted July 28, 2008 Well fingers are crossed here Toni,time is the best healer even tho your going nuts,it will be worth it in the long run
