    ->   I had arches built into my feet in late May, and I spent that summer with   
    -> casts from the knees down...having to learn to walk, ride a bike, etc. all   
    -> over again.   
      
    CY> Sounds like a bummer -- how old were you?   
      
     I was only 11...I had been allowed to take all my final exams in 5th grade   
   early, so I could proceed with the surgery. However, I tend to "go under very   
   deep" with anesthesia. My Mom said they told her to "shake me every once in   
   awhile, to make sure he's still alive".   
      
    CY> My wife had both her feet operated on as a child & dumb surgeon chose   
    CY> to do both at once, leaving her unable to be up on her own until   
    CY> recovered!   
      
     When I had plantar fasciitis (bone spur surgery) 11 years ago, I had both   
   feet done at the same time, as I wanted to get it over with. They got me   
   back there, and stripped me nude (as was expected). They got the I.V. in,   
   consulted with me beforehand, and gave me "relaxing medicine"...saying "This   
   will make you feel more comfortable".   
      
     POOF!! I was out like a light!! When I woke up, I felt like I had concrete    
   blocks on my feet. I had to wear special shoes for 6 weeks.   
      
     Bone spurs are the most common ailment podiatrists encounter. I usually   
   go to mine every month or two, to get the toenails trimmed. My arthritis   
   is so bad, that I can't squeeze the clippers. Plus, it lets them check   
   the feet for swelling, etc., as I have the potential to become type 2   
   diabetic.   
      
    CY> Who's the moderator who needs waking?
