Just a quick update. Monday saw the surgeon and has an x-ray taken of the foot. He's pleased with how it's going, and prescribed a different type of cast; something called a Charcot Restraint Orthotic Walker or CROW that allows you to walk and is removable at night (sleep well be nice).
Tuesday I went and had a mould taken of my foot and leg so the new CROW can be made, and also had my other foot measured for an orthopedic insole. They'll all be ready a week Friday so let's see how that goes.
I was floored though as to the cost. Over $3000 Canadian. Thank goodness the government pays 75% of that.
A week later back to the surgeon and with any luck I can get the ok to drive.
