There is a saying "Put your best foot forward" but I can't decide which it is. Vote Like for right, vote Wow for left and Haha for either!

Update "Oh No" for neither!

My message is watch those BGs and take good care of your feet!

Do we get the option of neither, since we have covered all the other possible options? I am going "Oh No" for neither. I am drawn to the sleekness of the left but I know it causes you a lot of phantom pain, so I can't choose it. Plus, from what I understand, you don't have regular use of the left one, so it is only a part timer. Can't you get a bandage and moon boot for it too so that you can at least look like they are matching!
 
Sorry mate it's an "Oh No" from me...

Hi @MikeyBikey I went for neither too.
I am amazed that you can find a bit of humour after all the issues with your feet and hospital visits. My hat off to you sir!
Seriously a lot of us resort to humour to cope with difficulties. Sharing on the forum helps me get through the day.

If you don’t laugh you’ll cry. I resort to humour a lot to get me through. I refuse to curl up in a corner and mope, even though I’m tempted at times.

I always have done that very thing Elaine, coupled with my sarcasm and honed to an acutely sharp point by preferring to mix - and work - with equally intelligent people. I can suffer fools better than I used to (cos you just have to, to survive) but am glad once I'm out of their company.

Only thing is these days, should I feel the need to curl up in a corner - I just go to sleep!
