RE: The National Crafts Fair of Barranquitas.

Hello Mr. janton! I developed Charcot foot syndrome due to diabetes and diabetic neuropathy. It weakens the muscles in the area which can cause the bones to deform, fracture, or break. I ended up with several fractures in the foot and ankle. I now have a hardware stores supply of screws and rods in the right leg and I have to use a crow boot for life.

oh no! ouch, that all sounds very painful! Do you have to take medication for the pain too? What is a crow boot?

It is. I can take pain medication when needed but I usually just bear with it and try to move the least possible when it flares up.

Ok, I see. That looks like it would be really hot in the summer!

I'm a bot. I detect haiku.

Because you don't want to get addicted to the pain medication?
