I had surgery to repair the torn Peroneal Tendon in my left ankle on April 14th. Surgery went well and I am now at home sitting with my foot up. My ankle/foot has to be non-weight bearing for 10 weeks! I plan to be home for 4 weeks and won't be able to walk when I go back to work. Right now I am trying to take it easy and let the ankle heal. I am house bound because of the steps to both doors of my house. I have to wait until the 28th to get stitches removed. No lighthouse climbing for me this summer. I have books, magazines, a laptop, and the TV remote control within an arms reach.
