Almost out of the woods...

That is the scoop on the latest set-back of the achilles saga! Today, my Dr. said he is still cautiously optimistic, but that it looks good. He reiterated that he was really on the fence after first seeing it the day after the E.R. visit. I actually had a suture come to the surface the other day and finally fall off...wonder if that was the issue to begin with.

Spent the day at a workshop, for any school personnel, about identifying students, or anyone else for that matter, on drugs and alcohol. It included field testing used for DWI's and a number of eye discrepancies, etc that occur with the 7 classifications of drugs. It was very informative and was only part one of a possible two part workshop...which I think I will attend in Sept. That way, I can, if necessary, actually do some assessments on students along with a couple of other colleagues who also wish to be able to do so. Not that we will be "Narc Hall Police" or anything, but just knowing what exactly to look for is helpful...especially in a college town! There are WAY too many drugs circulating for my comfort level.

Only two more weeks left of my "vacation"...HA...SOME vacation! Oh well....at least I will be DONE with this ankle stuff FOREVER I hope!
