Sorry I haven't been here much lately

[Catherine]

One day at a time and lots of rest.  If you can keep the bones immobilized with the cast, they will heal. Four more weeks isn't too bad. It is normal for a break like that.  Even the tendon should heal if you give it time.

I actually severed a tendon once. They had to surgically reconnect it. That was 52 years ago and my foot is fine. I have full movement and it doesn't bother me at all.

You will be healed and walking better by Valentines day. Winter will be gone soon enough after that and you will be walking normally and cast free before the hot weather hits.
