Guest guest Posted October 2, 2000 Report Share Posted October 2, 2000 I had foot surgery on both feet as a kid, so don't know if this will help or not. I was in casts up to my knees for 6-8 weeks. The last 2 weeks I got walking casts so could move around in the house. Otherwise was in a wheelchair. But wherever a wheelchair could go, my family took me. I also learned to play chess that summer and started listening to some French tapes. I also did alot of reading ahead for school and worked on art projects. But what was really important was that I had alot of friends and visitors come to see me. The casts did itch - so to scratch the itch I used a knitting needle. When the casts came off my feet felt like jello and it hurt to walk for awhile. Gretchen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
