Screwed

My wonderful husband came up with the title for this post. When I was going through some of the adoption paperwork for Logan's case I found a copy of my ankle x-ray. I had my surgery done in March so when we visited Logan for the first time I was still wearing my "boot". I wasn't sure how security was going to work, so I took a copy of my x-ray just in case. Thankfully, I didn't set off any alarms.

As you can see from the picture I now have seven screws and a four inch metal plate in my right ankle. They said they would just leave it all in, unless it gives me problems. So far it hasn't been too bad, except when it gets cold out side or if I'm on my feet for a really long time. Another side affect from the surgery is that if I scratch in one particular area I feel it in another spot. Weird huh?!?
