Health - 16 September 2006

in december of '04 i broke a bone in my foot. i was off work for about a month or 2. everything was fine until february of '06, when it rebroke, along with another bone. nothing was done to cause the second break. i was put in a cast and was off work for almost 3 months. once again, everything looked fine. that is until about a month ago. it started with a badly bruised feeling on the top of my foot. and it continuously worsened and i could not put pressure on the foot at all. i went to the hospital and they took an x-ray. said it was broken once again,and to see my orthopedic. so when i went, i was put in a stabilizing boot and on crutches and told that i have to play the waiting game. but as the days go on, i have noticed a small lump on the top of my foot, but not where the break is. and it is very sensitive to any pressure. there is slight swelling, and a horrible burning sensation all over the top of the foot. i also get sharp shooting pains constantly. what could cause this?

Like Christopher Reeve stayed slim and was nearly 100% paralyzed. I'm assuming he didn't exercise (could be wrong), and that he still ate.

So, what kept him from becoming 300-400 pounds; like some un-paralyzed people become when they are inactive?

My partner (who is almost 87 and very disabled through strokes) recently went into a nursing home for respite care. They sent him home with a massive bruise on his shin (I asked about this and "nobody knew anything about it"), a 3-day growth of beard, and smelling far from fresh. They have a lovely brochure boasting about their service and menu, but the level of care is far from acceptable. If I knew how to report this and who to, then I'd do it.
