A Very Successful Day!

Well, a very successful morning today. The podiatry went extremely well.  Everybody was delighted with the state of the foot.  The IPOC machine had done its job well doing a great job of healing the wound. The doctor who saw it was amazed at the difference in it from when she first saw it, and there was a big hole there. So, well done all the podiatry girls for being so patient, it has paid off.
I also had a bit of a fitting with the orthoptist who does the shoes. She last saw me in 2016 and fitted one sho sort of, and couldn't do any more because it was a case dressings and a further operation, healing time etc.,  Jo went off to see if they could locate the shoes that she reckoned were probably lying on a dusty shelf somewhere. Anyway they found them, and she came back with the shoes to have a go at fitting them. They actually fit very well, tried them on and I had a bit of a walk with them on. Great! it was lovely to have the feel of a proper shoe again, can't even remember when I last had shoes on. Lovely feeling.
No podiatry next week, just an appointment with Mr Butcher on Wednesday, and I think he will be chuffed with the foot too.
From podiatry we went to get a Costa from the retail park in Aintree. There is a P.C.world just opposite which we had planned to go to afterwards. We both had flat whites which were lovely. The Costa was quite quiet when we got there then all of a sudden it filled up. That branch has a great turnover with people coming and going all the time. Wouldn't mind shares in that one.
After that Vin went over to look at monitors and rang me up from inside,  The one that looked good was an Acer for £128 pounds with a three year guarantee. He has fitted it up and it seems to be working beautifully. Well done Vin XX
Little Jessie was in her basket when we left and was still there when we returned. Didn't look like she had moved at all.  Probably hadn't.
