On a sadder age note, my ankle has been driving me crazy off and on for the last 3 years. I have invested in a pretty good wrap for it and it has cut the majority of the daily discomfort down to about nothing. AND NO STABBING LIFE ENDING PAIN (always quick, however) since I started wearing it. 8 weeks is supposed to be the magic number when it will be stronger and I don't have to wear it all the time. My stepmother says she only wears hers for her knee when she is out doing yard work, etc. So there is hope.
I have a pic of it, but with the new camera, it will have to wait. I load it and I may never be able to find it again....but darn....it does take good pictures.....

Ankles
Well, my doctor informed me today that my ankle problems could very well be arthritis developing..........We'll wait til it definitely flares up again (of course it is better now after 5 weeks) and think about an x-ray. I will also get one of those wraps for my ankle and try to give it support around the house, etc when I'm not wearing nice supportive athletic shoes, etc....
I figured the arthritis thing was a possibility.........He did say that after a sprain (years ago and may not have been the same ankle), it is never the same. That and arthritis..............Love the 40's they are full of such good cheer........Bifocals, arthritis, cancer, cholesterol, fun stuff...............
