At the beginning of the week I had ten toenails....by Friday, I had nine. It all happened in a flash, at school, and involved a collision with a student - who had huge feet. ;-( Sorry to bore you all with such a mundane and semi-gross entry this week, however, a lot of people have asked about my toe - so I thought I would blog it all as an update.
I did see the Podiatrist on Friday who did remove the nail - (since it was half off anyway.....sorry for the details!). So now I soak, medicate it with iodine, wrap it, and wait. According to Dr. Guerra, I will have a shiny new nail in about 9 months!!! YIKES....I never knew it took this long to grow a new toenail. Who knew????? Anyway, I am just glad that it will happen over the winter months so I won't have to deal with such an ugly toe during "sandal season". :-)
By the way, just so you know, having that toenail removed was traumatic....UGH!
On to brighter topics......I promise! ;-)
