Hey all,
What kind of shoes do you guys wear? I spent 3 hours in the ER last
night because (I'm assuming) when my nurse put my shoe on, my big toe
nail must have got bent back and nearly ripped off (now is off and
bandaged) and made the whole side of my foot purple. Anyway, mom
doesn't want me wearing tennis shoes. What do you guys wear? Thx.

C-3 Quad since 4/12/01
OI Type IV since 7/29/82
I wear various running and x training shoes a few sizes too big to get
the width and the room for the usual expansion from swelling. My
podiatrist is recommending some http://drcomfortshoes.com/ they look OK
for the fashion and style in my blood and they are so comfortable and
well made. If you have the pleasure of diabetes and paralysis,
medicare will pay for 1 pair/year.
In my <4 years as a quad I have had 3 ingrown toenails removed all the
way from the root. They are now trouble free and look more healthy
