When I was 25, I had a car wreck that broke my right ankle so bad that it dislocated 90 degrees. Luckily, I had a great Dr. that actually saved my foot. I broke the talis bone in half. He ended up taking the top half and fuse my foot. I had also broke my femur that put me in traction for a week. Over the next year & a half I had several surgeries. In 2007, I had another fusion surgery that helped with the pain from arthritis. I am now 51 and on disability. I still have discomfort, but am thankful that I have a foot.
