One of the events this past week was another surgery on my ankle, to take out metal. Last spring when my doc put both of my broken ankle bones back together he installed a titanium plate and screws on the lateral side, and pins and wires on the medial side to hold the pieces together while they healed.
This is the plate that was removed, along with the screws. Not much was left of the pins and wires because they had to be cut to be removed. I'm so glad to have all that metal out now. It seems a bit odd that I want to keep this hardware but maybe I'll make something out of it.. earrings perhaps.
