But why not both?

Where do i find a good set of foams, straps, and rivets to customize a night splint I use for my plantar fasciitus? I don't know what any of tge parts are called so I need a site with good pictures. The splint works wonders but needs to be adjusted plus it came with shitty straps. Pretty much all of the splints look similar, which means they all pretty much suck as is. It doesn't help that I have a 22" calf.

Ive lost a bunch of weight and have improved my strength and fitness a lot. Fixing my foot will get me over the hump to a new level.

[Thaleia]

Can't help ya but serious props on the weight loss.

[Elkhound Odin]

I can’t help, but wish you well. I was a year sleeping in one of those plantar boots for a year before my problem cleared.

not necessarily for sleeping but I have used those plantar fasciitis ankle sleeves many times and they DEF help get my issues addressed.

Also, rolling the golfball under the foot from heel bone thru the arch as painfully as you can bear will help break up the tightness and then loosen the foot...

Also, wear shoes. Walking around barefoot or in flipflops is terrible for PF. Rolling the arch of the foot back and forth over a frozen water bottle helps too

My PT says not so much with the ball. I got a lot going on in my foot. Its not just plantar fasciitis. I just too much to type out and everyone knows PF. Either way the splint helps when it fits right.

How funny would it be to congratulate my son's new GFand tell her she is his 500th GF when he brings her home this coming weekend? Will it be irreparable or will he look back years from now and laugh? Its totally on brand for me.

Love it lol

[dan_pdx]

Ooh, pretty bold, I would have been irritated if my dad did that. Depends on your relationship IMO. Maybe save it for your speech at their wedding

In all seriousness, that really depends on *her* sense of humor, which makes it very dangerous territory for you. If she's sufficiently twisted, especially if your son already warned her about your inclination to make such comments, she may find it amusing. If she's got my ex-wife's ability to hold on to a slight, she'll be reminding your son about it when they're looking at nursing homes for you.

But I believe the proper TGR answer is that we'd need pics of her to make that call.

Alternate viewpoint: it’s not funny and is just kind of cringey/dickish.

I would agree that you really don't want to bring up your children's stuff to their significant others. My kids had so much baggage that I never mentioned. With my daughter's husband asked me if he could marry her, the most I said was have you really thought this through and before you punch her call me and I'll come and get her. So if that wasn't warning enough I don't know what to do for the guy.

On brand for me, unfortunately.

Regarding the foot, did you look at these guys? They seem to have everything under the sun for orthopedics https://www.henryschein.com/us-en/me...thopedics.aspx


Or maybe find somebody local who welds aluminum and design your own rig.

Have ai 3d print you something.
Market it.
Make jillions

I read a while ago that every UPS store was going to offer 3D printing, did that ever happen?

[Garbowski]

UPS has pivoted to AI.

Nope, called the cops. I told him never to do that again. Call me.

I admire your sense of responsibility. Seriously.
