Thanks

Among other things,@rayhome, I too, have hammertoes. Until I recently had surgery for an ingrown toenail, I didn't experience pain in my toes. Now, I can only wear certain shoes that don't hurt my feet. I have a wonderful podiatrist who said he would do surgery. I believe I will have it done in September, after a family member has some appointments at a regionsl medical center. The pain is enough to effect my activities of daily living. I give you my sincerest sympathy as you walk through this journey with your wife. What a blessing you must be to her. Prayers and good vibes sent your way, for sure! Talk with you again soon!
