I have forgotten what day it is of my recovery but I have been in to get a new cast on my left foot. Dr. Conklin thinks it is looking great. Anyhow I am waiting for my older brother and other family members to draw on my cast and do what ever they want to it.
Also I am looking forward to getting this cast off on 12.17.09. So I will blog when I can.

New Cast
Hay Everyone,
Yesterday I came in to get a cast change and also to have some external staples removed and some stitches removed from my heal. I wont be ashamed to say I did cry a little as it was very painful.
Anyhow now I have a new white cast on and of course it will not stay clean after my older brother dose some art work on it.
Bye for now, Emily Gillis
p.s my foot is healing nicely according to Dr. Conklin

Day of Surgery
Today is my surgery day. So I am just tring not to think of it to much and making sure that my Ipod is all charged up. I will blog when I can.
Bye, Emily Gillis
Eve before Surgery
Well it is the day before my surgery. I am not looking forward to it all but I know that I will be in safe hands. Knowing that I will be with my friend Dr. Conklin and he wont lead me down the wrong road.
Having a club foot is not easy to have but having a good relationship with a surgeon sure helps.
Well I will blog again before leaving tomorrow morning.
Bye, Emily Gillis
Arthritis and Snow
Well it is finely here. Snow the wet stuff everyone loves and hates. Well I am in between, I love the snow coming that I was born in Leadville and so having arthritis in my foot makes it hard for me to go and enjoy the snow.
Anyhow I can still admire the snow through windows. And seeing my dog bound around in it.
Bye for now, Emily Gillis

Up coming Surgery
Hi my fellow Panorama blogers,
As my title states I am coming for surgery. I am having my foot worked on by Dr. Conklin who I like very much and think he is one of the best Orthopedic surgeons I have ever had.
I had my fair share of surgeries and compaired to my pediatric surgeon Conklin takes the cake.
My surgey is coming it is Nov. 4th, 2009. I will try and blog my recovery but it might be a while. Anyhow I am new to this blogging thing, so bear with me.
Bye for now, Emily Gillis
