The Piggy didn't get to go home.....

What we have now can be gone within an instant. Three weeks ago, I was so happy with my life.  I was eating well, losing weight and was enjoying exercising.  In terms of exercising, I loved to go walking at the lake or at the park by my house.  Well, I must have overdone it.  I ended up with a blister on the bottom of my left foot.  It was actually on the side below the Pinky Toe, so I could not see it when I was checking my foot. 
Well the blister popped and got infected.  I was lucky enough to make an appointment with my Podiatrist and was seen two days later.  She did not like the way it looked and was thinking about possibly admitting me to the Hospital.  Instead, she gave me an antibiotic and a cream to use; and to schedule an appoint with my Peripheral Vascular Dr to check the circulation in my leg.  I ended up having an angioplasty which showed that I had no circulation on the bottom of my feet. 

Two weeks pass, and I go see Dr. Borchers for my follow-up;  upon seeing it; she had me admitted to the Hospital. They ended up amputating my left Pinky Toe.  IT was that badly infected.  I  am still in the hospital with a wound vac attached and we will see what will come of this.  Hopefully, this will be fixed but unfortunately I see this as the beginning of more surgeries and such.  I am grateful for my sister who has sacrificed more than anyone to be able to be here for me.  But, I will finish my courses this year, I will graduate this December!  I have gone through so much to not finish.

Thank you to those that have read this.
