this has been one of the hardest things iāve ever had to go through physically and emotionally. i have wanted my bunions gone since i was a teenager and have never had the time, support, or money to get them removed. but finally, at the age of 32 and 3 buionectomies later iām bunion free! š š¦¶š½
now iāll never be a foot model, but at least i wonāt ever have to be as self-conscious as i was before. iām still very much recovering and i canāt even swim or wear heels yet but iām getting better everyday. this last surgery was a revision from a bunionectomy i got 10 years ago, so the healing process is taking much much longer. so, iām trying to be patient.
if youāve ever wanted to get something fixed or upgraded about yourself then fu***ng do it. people will tell you all day long nothing is wrong with you, but they donāt have to wake up as you every day. youāre allowed to feel confident and beautiful and comfortable in your own skin.
and a BIG thank you to all my friends who have been there for me during this time. bringing me food, spending time with me. especially rodrigo, who took me took care of me and even took me to the hospital to get a morphine shot bc the pain was unbearable. i could not have done this alone. šš¾
