Okay ... for those of you who do not like reality shots.... turn away... if on the other hand you don't mind ... here are the ankle shots from start to now.... or at least after surgery.


There is not supposed to be all the little bits and pieces in the longer bones!






So with a little hardware .... stainless steel is really a good strong component.... the long screw joining the two bones together must come out before the ankle will function properly.



Here is the handy work.... notice the nice margins and spaces between the bones.... well aligned ... Now!!


So to protect the repair a nice fiber glass wrap worked well. If only I could have had a few of the "wraps" to keep in the workshop.... imagine the possibilities for water activated fibre glass cloth!!!


Of course the graduation to an air cast took place yesterday,,,, with an extra fee... one gets to keep this piece of technology!!


And now for the real thing.... wrapped up for a few weeks brought its own surprises....


And now we prepare for the next phase....
