Hi,
My father has broken his ankle very severely due to a fall and will have surgery today. From what I understand he will need special screws and such to fix it. We've been told that he can start trying to walk again after about 6 weeks but it will may take a long time before he's fully recovered. I understand that you cannot give me any sure answers due to the limited information I've given, but if you could give your thoughts on how it generally goes for people his age I'd appriciate it and it may comfort us. he is 59 years and pretty healthy, all he does is walk, no sports or anything. I just pray that he can eventually recover completely from this and enjoy life with no limitations from this injury.
Thanks for your help,
Jack
