Achilles....Torn.
I got in an MRI this afternoon and I got the worse of news. My Achilles is torn. From the sounds of things it's pretty bad too. My friend/ex-coworker was able to get me in, insurance only, on short notice. There was a Radiologist who happened to be present and he looked at the results and gave me an initial overview. He said it most likely will require surgery! Oiy! I am not only in shock but I am bummed. So now I have to find an Orthopedist and schedule an appointment. I am definitely not looking forward to the surgery and the rehabilitation. I have never had an injury of this magnitude. The only surgery that I have ever had was a vasectomy. I asked the doctor if I can still drive and he said "Sure! Do you know how to drive with your left foot?" I thought he was kidding but he was dead serious. I guess I will have to practice this weekend. Plus I am bummed because I will miss out on Sunny & Marilyn's wedding day. Jadon will be bummed as well. -Sigh-

That freakin' sucks! I'll check with the people I used to work with at UCI about a rehab place... One of my former co-workers has a wife who owns a physical therapy clinic in Anaheim and works with the Angels, Lindsey Davenport, and other athletes...
Duuuuuuude, OUCH!!!! Your blog kinda made my stomach turn. So sorry to hear of your injury. I am bummed for you, too.
