Back in about 1984 or '85, I stepped on an X-ACTO knife. They are hobby knives that are really sharp, almost scalpel sharp. If I remember correctly I was stripping some phone wire at my mom and dads house.

Of course I wasn't wearing shoes just some non-kevlar socks (cotton)tube socks, so not much protection. Well that turned out to be a big mistake, cause I stepped on it right in the arch of my right foot OUCH!!
It bled like crazy soaked my whole sock till it was red and dripping. When I finally stopped the bleeding and put a bandage on it, I finished the wiring job. I had to have a phone in my room I was 14.
So finally 23 years later it was time to say goodbye to an old friend. Hobling around was getting old and painful, and Im sure it wasn't helping my back. Thanks to Ebeth and Lynell bugging me I finally made the decision to get it fixed!
January 9th 2007 - D-DAY Ebeth takes me to the Orthopedic Surgery Center. They take us back into a little room so I can change into something more comfortable.

Nice Outfit!
IV inserted wonder whats in it????
Oh looks like some good stuff!
Here is the nurse that put my IV in she was pretty funny.
And here are the other nice nurses HEHEHE
I was awake after only about 15 minutes out of the OR, can you see why.
After surgery they put this huge dressing on. So here what the Robert Jones bandage looks like. It's really thick and bulky.
