Well today my cast came off, didn't look as bad as I thought underneath, obviously not that beautiful, but think it could've been worse. I'm now in a well cool, almost robotic, boot. I also got some photos of my before and after x-rays. Here they are!

Can't see much, but the joints should be clean and have an even space between them, which this doesn't.

Now here it is with all the metalwork in, three joints pinned together (thus the surgery being called a Triple Arthrodesis). Slowly but surely, the joints are being fused together to get rid of the pain.
