Hooo boy. Yep. I discovered what Plantar Fasciitis is/was while on a 4 day vacation to tour the Smithsonian museums. I was pretty darn miserable. I had no idea what was wrong with my foot.

I did get it cured though. Took about 6 months but it’s fine now.

I preferred physical therapy with Terri when mine was damaged.

Yes I have, for a couple months after a roller blading accident when I tore up my miniscus.

I have one, and will likely for the rest of my life.

I’ve been asked on multiple occasions been asked by coworkers if I have a wooden leg. Seriously.

Now I just tell them that it’s a space age polymer leg
