Katie's Ordeal


There she is, all prepped and ready to go for surgery. After two weeks with four legs (two of them being decidedly pink and "blinged" out), she headed down to Shand's hospital in Gainesville for surgery to remove the huge cyst in her femur.


A plate and three screws later, surgery was completed! But recovery was rocky. The pain medications knocked her out and made her sick all at the same time. And her incision point and hip remained sore for weeks afterwards. But, she's a trooper, and only two weeks after surgery, she shed her flamingo legs for forever. Her version of that story is, "Black Friday shopping, crutches free!"
