More shocking news

Right leg: Achilles Tendonitis As I mentioned in my previous post, doctor said I need to stand less, walk less and run less if not my tendon will rupture. I'm so scare of Tuesday and Friday, as I have to stand for 5 hours lessons. Of course my beloved students will allow me to sit and teach, but I'm not used to it, I prefer to stand and walk around the classroom during lesson. As I'm a hyperactive person, I still attend all kind of activities even though I know the pain will kill me after each event.... not forgetting, the scolding from darling....

Left leg: Bunion
Last week, we walk past a stall which sell custom-fitted for correction insole (orthotics). I was told to stand on this glass panel which can measure the pressure I applied on my feet. Not surprise to know that my posture is not correct and thus I'm having achilles heel. The sales person said if I didn't correct my posture, it will later affect my back. The insole will cost about S$400, with 1 year warranty. I know I shouldn't hesitate in spendng this amount of money. I was brought up in a family where money is always not enough, thus, must think twice before spending and it must be worth spending!!

Anyway, cut the long story short, the shocking news that I want to share here is, the man said my left foot is developing bunion!! Many people will think probabily ask "what so scary with bunion, this is quite common?". See the picture yourself, picture paints a thousand words....
