@ColinUK I am another one voting for top hat and tails and a silver topped cane and how about that pearl drop earring you were going to get?.... You could look a real "Dandy" ....... Or you could go the other way, tell the surgeons to whip it off, get an eye parch, crutch and parrot, still with the pearl drop earring of course and permanently play a swashbuckling pirate. I could see you looking equally fabulous and flambouyant in either circumstance. As others have said, it's a sports/road accident injury not old age. These things happen and thankfully we have the wonderful people within the NHS to fix them. A word of caution though.... particularly as this will involve limited mobility of your foot which needs to heal.... Maintaining good management of your BG is more important now than ever before. I know that will be difficult with all the other stress you are under but maybe find low carb comfort foods to binge on if necessary.
