My annual physical today. The nurse asked if I was having any problems. I told her that my right foot hurt when I wore shoes. I could only comfortably wear my hiking boots or Wellies. She made a note, gave me one of those scraps of cloth she euphemistically called a robe and left. When the doc walked into the exam room she gasped. While my right foot might be the one w/ an issue, my left foot currently is a vivid purple from toes to ankle, somewhat swollen, and looks fairly hideous. "What happened?" she asked. "My foot and a piece of firewood had a tryst in the dark last Thursday." I replied. She laughed. Always a good thing to put your physician at ease before an examination.A picture from my cousin, Paul Domsten.
