A foot, a foot, my kingdom for a foot!

So here is my foot, exactly a year ago... For those of you not aware, I fractured every bone between my foot and leg, including ankle, while carrying my son at the beach. I did drop him square on his head, but he bounced off the cement like a basketball, ended up with just a small bump... On the other hand, I have been in pretty much some kind of pain since...
Finally got all the hardware out of my foot in April, had to cut it up again, it was nasty... Got to keep all the screws and plates though, thinking about building a nice cabinet with them, or maybe making them into a nice necklace.
Going back to the scene of the crime on Friday (Oceanside, California), I will sit in a chair on the beach for a week, trying to avoid breaking any more bones... The first picture is after surgery in April, the second is the x-ray taken last July, the day after I injured myself.
