Dr sent for me this mng in reference to a special shoe being made for me. He advised me not to have one made yet, as my wound was still discharging & could do so for some time to come, & as soon as my wound was healed, I would be measured for one. Then, He supposed I may be in England or Holland where I would be able to get a better shoe made.
