Hmm...dare I jump into this debate? Uhhh...yep. Fran Blacker, I too completely dislocated my right ankle in 2013, looking down the inside of my right leg the bottom of my foot was looking back at me. It hurts me EVERY DAY to walk on it. I take nothing for it. Never will. I stopped drinking beer and liquor, smoking grass and hash, smoking cigarettes, and drinking coffee like a fiend...all on the same day. I was stationed in West Germany at the time. I spent 32 days in a med spa in Austria but still, I stopped. I did. Nobody helped me, nobody held my friggin hand, nobody eased me off of anything. I was just 21 years old. If I had not stopped when I did, I wouldn't have made it to 22. My company and my pals never knew I did it or what it cost me. Nobody knew, I took 30 days in country leave, said I was going skiing in Austria and Italy. Was it hard? Hell yes, it was and still is a nightmare. Now before you say stuff like, well your an exception, or your just strong willed or any other nonsense, hear this...I am just a regular guy. If I CAN DO IT, ANY DAMN BODY SHOULD BE ABLE TO DO IT. MHO. 2 cents.
